Central Japan

I went to Nagoya Castle.

There are golden dolphins on top, although really I don't think they look like any dolphins I've ever seen. Maybe Japanese dolphins are different. Also there was one inside the museum.

Hida Folk Village was an old style town.

There were old style stilts.

BearDog and Cookie Monster enjoyed the town too.

Free ride!

Toyota has a museum for their spinning and loom business and then automotive business. It was a very good museum for nerds.

It had a lot of interactive displays, also I learned how to work a loom.
