"Ocean Waves" is breath-taking! - Such drama!
Pleasant journeys, Miss M :)
I just love that japanese art. Reminds me of japanese stories that were read to me as a child.
I hope Miss M has a fabulous time.
Miss M is livin' the life. Hope she has a grand adventure!
She could also buy lots of beautiful fabrics.
Hope she has a ball!
Lucky girl - suppose it's too late to offer to carry her bags then :o)
Have a wonderful time Miss M.
I hope Miss M has a wonderful time and comes home with fabulous stories to share. Have a safe and happy trip Miss M.
ah sugoi ne... I just came back and I'm still jealous.
Happy times, MissM!
Ooo lovely. Hope Miss M has a wonderful time away.
How exciting! Hope it all goes wonderfully well.
Subarashii desu ne! What a wonderful opportunity. We used to be able to see Fuji-sama from our apartment window (only in Winter though - too much pollution in the summer).
It's a fantastic time of year to visit - hope she captures lots of autumn leaves. They are stunning.
My verification word is 'yeauf' - it's a precious thing. Glad Miss M is making the most of hers.
Your blog just takes my breath away every single day. How lucky your family are to have this record of their lives to look back on.
Those pictures are beautiful, just lovely. Do you live in an art shop?!
Have fun MissM. I hope you bring some pictures back!( Don't drop your camera) :)
You will have the time of your life!
So young, and already she is Miss M, World Traveler.
...While I am Ms. E, Pastry Eater.
I think your blogging style is actually quite Japanese. There is a simple, exact elegance in your photographs and words.
So now I'm wondering whether there is a way of finding a Japanese blogger to join our comment boxes. The last time I wished for a Swedish blogger, and the very next day Bluemountainsmary "introduced" me to Anna. So....here's hoping it works again.
I wish Miss M a fantabulous journey.
Perhaps Miss M is a passing heron
(Waves) Have fun, MissM! Tell us all about it!
What a lucky young woman!

Lucky Miss M!
What a beautiful post!
I'm so sorry my daughter did not continue with japanese: she was so besotted until she had an awful teacher last year, and dropped it.
As for the art...they are very beautiful images you have used, some of my favourites. Hokusai's Great Wave is one of my all time loves, since I was 15 in fact.
I hope she has a lovely time.
