Rihoko, the kids, and I traveled to Yokohama to visit some good friends while we were in Japan. On our way we had some time to kill in Atami station. Christopher and I were waiting for Rihoko and Nanami when we spotted these maiko (apprentice geisha), standing outside of the station gates. There were several people going up to the ladies and having their picture taken. As Christopher and I walked closer to the barrier dividing the inside of the station from the exterior the three ladies noticed us and started waving at my four-year-old son. I took the opportunity to snap a picture.
