The sea…
We’ve left the madness that is pre-Christmas Melbourne behind & we’re enjoying the snoozy pace of life by the sea. I’ve been to a beautiful wedding, slept a lot & sipped a lot & today I lost a couple of hours in this place.
I’d only been to Kyo once before & had no idea it was anywhere near as big as it is. There’s so much to love about Kyo. I was tossing up whether to share the vintage Kimono or the Kokeshi.
There’s something else really special stored on the digital camera but I can’t show you that…I’m working on The Date for that one!
This is my pick of the Kokeshi. I hope when I go back it’s not gone! Keep away Melbourne girls.
PS: Wish you were here…happy to be a courier for Kokeshi.

OHMYOHMY!!
Kirst…you have stumbled across a treasure trove of Japanese sweetness.
If you can fit one in I would LOVE a little doll, fix you up when you get back OR happy to transfer the smash x

Enjoy your time at the sea! And I will keep my fingers crossed the Kokeshi waits for you.
(I love 'smash' instead of 'cash', that is the best typo ever! Or you do take smash?)

WHere is this Kyo? I must admit to a japan fascination – we went when W was 2 – not the best time to take on the nation I realised but still an amazing experience!

I've heard nice things about Kyo – and then you go and present photographic evidence! Have family friends in Point Lonsdale – may use them as an excuse to visit next time we're down south.
Have a lovely Christmas!
