We are currently in Kyoto, traveling and siteseeing with friends. Kyoto is one of the must see places in Japan and is very close to Osaka. We have just spent two full days here and scratched the surface of what there is to see. One gets a bit temples out so, after a couple of days of shrines and temples we are moving on. But will be back in a couple of weeks to visit more friends, and back around Christmas again with another group of friends. Right now the colors are just beginning to change and accommodation was a problem so we ended up staying in Otsu, overlooking beautiful Lake Biwa. We have also met a world renowned pottery expert and purchased a beer mug from him. I never realized the sultety of buying a custom beer mug but I am very happy with mine. Thanks Rob for your help and patience.
We will post some pictures later as we are traveling without a way to get the photos from camera to blog at present. This afternoon we head back to the boat for a short visit and swap out some clean clothes for dirty ones. Then it is off to Osaka central to a check out a couple of craft brewers. Did we mention we are traveling with a couple of beer specialists! Pretty not bad way to travel but not sure if my kidneys will hold out!
This was just a street corner in Kyoto but love the colours and activity. The persimmons look great as well! One of my favorite photos
