Over the weekend i was lucky enough to attend a Traditional Japanese Wedding in Matsue, Izumo Province, in the Chugoku Region of the Shimane Prefecture …. now that’s a mouthful. It was a short and sharp visit, flying down Saturday morning and back again Sunday.

With pretty much the whole weekend being consumed by the wedding, there was little of no time to get out and about and take photos. Rest assured, next weekend i will resume my travels on the JR Yamanote Line, i certainly wasn’t in good enough shape to head down to Ebisu when i landed Sunday afternoon.

As for the wedding, it was an interesting and thoroughly enjoyable affair and one i can say not too many Gaijin are fortunate enough to experience. The actual ceremony was held at Izumo Taisha, which i believe is the oldest and most important Shinto Shrines in Japan.
