I'm about halfway through about 300+ photos taken today. Too tired... I'm going to post these and go to bed

These are fantastic!

Thanks! Coming from you that takes some awesome vacation photos too, it means a lot :)

Those are pretty cool. I can't imagine walking in those geta with that thing on my head. Walking in the small geta I had (maybe 1-2"?) when I was a kid was challenging enough!

[herpdaddy]

Yeah. No padding. Just your feet wrapped in a tabi and then wood... And he walked a good 1.5 to 2km in those. Up hill! Eeeesh...

Oh, right, that too. I was thinking more of the balancing act. Though they're probably more stable than your average high heel. Not that I'd want to walk that far in those, either! Geez.
