Here is our gang... it took a few tries to get this one... but it turned out perfect... Thanks Jamey...
As we entered... I went through the peasant door way and Blake went through the door way meant for the KING...
Once we entered we had to take off our shoes/boots and put these on... and carry our shoes around in a little bag... they forgot to build shoe lockers when they made this back in 1800's.
These holes in the walls are were the samurai would shoot bow and arrows from the castle... see all the wear around the opening...
Here is a view from one of the holes...
Blake checking out the armor from a samurai.
The boys bowing at the north end...
And the girls at the south end...
The boys being funny while I am trying to take a picture... but it turned out pretty cute.
Back inside the castle... this is a good shot at how steep the stair cases were... I could not imagine doing these stairs wearing armor.
Gillian is our poser... love this girl...
The ducks got in the picture just at the right time... We paid them big money to do this...
Gillian was posing again... so we had to jump in and take a girl shot... turned out pretty cute.
More action shots... the boys trying to do kung fu...
Ahhhh... so sweet... like a picture you would see in Paris...
Blake and I tried to capture the same moment... but this is how ours turned out...totally fits our characters more than a smooch picture... love it.
And the Unruh's...
This is were we would buy the hot cocoa... from a vending machine and it was so so good...
A great day checking out the castle... we leave tomorrow (blogging world dates)... so sad.

Ha! I like the shot of you and Blake trying to show PDA! You are so silly.
I'm soooo jealous! That was my kind of dream trip! Tell Gillian I LOVE her boots! Looks like you guys all had the best time.
