    These trees can really stink at times. A very unpleasant smell for sure.

    Yes, seeds of ginkgo stink. But, those called ginnan are yummy.

    Ah Takakun look at the trees.

    I must be tired, I read that as 'Takuan':-)I might just be hungry ;-)

    Beautiful color! I am going to try and catch the last of the foliage here in the Kobe area tomorrow.
