After a text-heavy post yesterday, I thought I'd do something more photographic today.
When we were up in Karuizawa, we had a "sparkler and fireworks" night of our own. Fireworks aren't illegal here. The cheap fireworks didn't work all that well, but the sparklers were a huge hit. That may have had something to do with the difficulty we had getting them to bed afterwards!

Walking at the volcano produced many climbing opportunities on strange larva formations. Unfortunately our "Eveready Bunny" (eldest son) led all the children on way too many climbs which was almost the undoing of our visitors' 9 year old.

We ate lunch at a road-side stall near a waterfall. One vendor was cooking these fish on a stick. He did have quite a lot who alive, waiting to be cooked. And he allowed the children to play with them – catching them in their hands. It kept the kids amused for a long time. Poor fish were probably pretty stressed, though, especially when one of the kids tried to catch five at the same time!
