and then we saw some really bizarre stuff....

Omishima Island:


Me and J: our mutual love for ice cream

Hilly little guy, situated within the inland sea--- Houses the mountain god’s Oyamatsumijinja Shrine—which once commanded quite a bit of respect from pirates. An armor collection was built up in the shrine’s treasure house; including more then half the armor in Japan; 80% of the armor and helmets designated as National Treasures are held here. Basically? A whole bunch of samurai swords!

The one pic I could score before getting yelled at by an incredibly intense security dude.

In the building next door lies a boat used by Emperor Hirohito during his marine science ‘investigations,’ and the guys sick collection of pickled/calcified/jarred sea creatures.

Again, the sole picture I snapped before getting yelled at by yet another--- even more intense security dude. Jesus people! They're just swords and crabs! Take it easy!
