Ofuna Pumpkins and Kannon

We started our Halloween festivities this year with Ofuna Flower Center.  It is the closest thing we could find here in Japan to a pumpkin patch.

When it came to pumpkins they really just brought a few in and stuck them on the grass.  Not growing or even buying them.

Since we were close we stopped at Ofuna Kannon.  It is a really huge statue only about 30 minutes away from our house.  We thought it was worth checking out.
