Mishima Shrine, Emmei-ji Temple, and Sushi
After visiting Yamanaka Castle ruins, and taking the bus back to Mishima, I got off the bus at Mishima Shrine. Even though I have been here before, it is still interesting to visit again.
Behind the shrine area, I saw this little deer zoo that I hadn’t seen on previous visits.
Just by luck, I came across Emmei-ji Temple, which seems to be the dog temple.
This is the google translate of the page above. It didn’t translate the story exactly right.
I ate sushi dinner at this restaurant, across from the train station. Many restaurants in Japan have pretend food, possibly made of wax, to show what they serve. I had a sushi plate, but don’t have a photo of it. It was very delicious.
Another good day in Japan.

Hello Pamela: Another lovely post, I am so sad about the puppies and their mother, what a kind man the priest was, the people that gave the puppy food were also kind.
Thank-you for sharing.

You find such interesting places! Even when you unexpectedly stumble upon them. Today, you saw both deer and dogs.
The really good thing about the restaurant displays is that you see the size of the portion, what vegetables are included in a salad and how the fish is served, e.g. with or without its head and tail.
Lovely post and place to visit. Sad story about the dogs. Your food looked great.
Visiting new playces is fun, but it's also fun to return to previously visited places and discover new things!
