Denver to Japan - Memories

 

Here we have organized photos and videos that help us remember this wonderful trip.

There were well over 2000 photos taken. I have taken the liberty of selecting samples and arranging them chronologically.

Click on the link for any of the activities below and you will find a page with all the pictures we've included for that activity. On each of these pages you can view a picture simply by clicking on the picture description. There are also 'prev' and 'next' buttons to allow you to look at the pictures on a page in sequence.

I have indicated the current number of pictures put on each page, to save you trouble of looking at empty pages - and to encourage travelers to submit their pictures to help complete the story.

Please note that if you use the 'next' button to step through the pictures on a page, depending on the speed of your internet link you may see the caption change, then a short pause, then the new picture will display. Have a little patience.
