Kamakura cont....

After Zuisenji I went to another temple called Kenchoji.

In front they had this set up.

To the left were all these little ceramic bowls.

I donated a coin and put some of mom's ashes in the dish.

I then tossed it on the rock with all the others.

I strolled around and down a wooded path and found where they dump all the broken pieces and some other curious forms.

One of them is coming home with me if I don't break it.

There were Japanese letters written on this. Really beautiful.

More interesting stairs.

Now that's a whole lotta copper!

Mom will like it here too.
