Lights.

This is a first for my blog: pictures from my cell phone. Yes, I was empty-handed last night when I went to LUMINARIE, a series of light displays on the streets of Kobe, given as a gift from Italy after the 1995 earthquake here. They run for 2 weeks during December and are really pretty amazing. Seems like a random gift, but the streets were packed (and the cameras were out) to see the colors. Woooo!
