A couple of “oni” (demons) keep each other warm on the rocks as the weather turns chilly in Onidashi-en, Karuizawa, in Nagano Prefecture.

    Ah, when it gets cold, there's nothing like a cuddle.

    Karuizawa is one of my favorite places to go in the fall. Just wish I could afford to have a villa there.

    What's with the Japanese and demons? I was raised to despise them not embrace them... I don't know...

    Looks like a ninja turtle and ET hugging each other.

    So does the evil connotation of "demon" not translate to the modern "oni"? I don't get it.
