You think your shoes are uncomfortable...









My niece & nephew, who are living & working in Japan, sent us these photos. Owee!!

Oh, that hurts!
I would have hoped that the tradition or practice of binding feet would be a thing of the past! Obviously it's not! This is really disturbing to see!

My nephew thinks "feet binding" has stopped for the most part with this elderly ladie's generation. By the way, Carol-Ann, how would I add the Lake Como photo to my blog title as you suggested?

Oh, I'm so excited you asked! But I think I better put it in an email rather than clog up your comments!

That never fails to amaze me! It seems so grotesque and so cruel!
