Hiked up a fricken thousand stairs and then a small hill to get this shot.... thats after paying $10 for parking at the bottom. It was worth it!

This Sakura tree is on the grounds of a shrine in Odawara. Tree is dated back to 330 years ago.

Yeah, another train shot... except that this one slowed down to about 80 mph (from around 160) to pass through Atami Station. You have to imagine the rush of air as this thing passes by you only 5 feet away...
