The Three Mountains (August 5-31, 1998)
I spent two weeks in Tokyo, exploring the sites and going to a huge comic convention, then climbed Mount Fuji, and finally traveled to the northern prefecture of Yamagata to visit the temples on the three sacred mountains: Haguro, Gassan, and Yudono.

I spent four weeks in the Kyoto/Osaka area of Japan, traveling the Saigoku Pilgrimage route of thirty-three Buddhist temples sacred to the goddess of mercy, Kannon, and re-visited many tourist sites I had seen briefly back in 1990.
