  At Kotokuin Temple, the husband took pictures of almost all that interested him with his single-lens reflex camera and the wife recorded everything that attracted her by her camcorder.  They were really pleased to see the inside of the Great Buddha.  When they saw a private house along the road to Hasedera Temple, they shouted, “It’s a small house!” and took photos with enthusiasm.  They bought a lot at a 100 yen shop in front of Hase Station.  After we had a late lunch, we went to see Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, where they also walked into anywhere they could.  At Yokohama Chinatown, they were excited at its size, saying that it is far bigger than that in Melbourne.  Their children got excited to choose CDs at a K-pop shop.  There we were behind schedule.  At Minato Mirai 21, they bought a lot at H&M, took a lot of photos of Christmas trees and the night scene outside.  Anyway, all day long, they enjoyed sightseeing to their heart’s content whole day.
