We visited Kyoto all too briefly today. It is a great town with a very pleasant vibe -- homey, yet large, yet clean, yet not all-new and shiny looking. It also has a strong hip university flavor to it, making it feel smallish and homey yet international.
Walked around plenty in the heat, saw a shrine, saw some geisha action, and ate dinner at a sushi kaiten (sushi on a conveyor belt!!!). Here are some pictures. Wifi is being a jerk and not letting me post my avi (movie) clips -- maybe I'll get some of those up later.
Tomorrow is travel to Nozawa in Nagano prefecture. I get the drift I'll be on trains all day long, so not too much excitement.
