Yes indeed. We're waiting for typhoon Vongfong to pass, so I thought it might be time for another one of these. The city we're in has a amazing history. It mixes the dramatic history of being an ancient capital....
With that of being a busy, modern metropolis.
It is a city of shrines and temples and of wonderful restored neighborhoods.
Some of the temples are just plain beautiful and photogenic if you plan your time right and get there before all the tourists.
We've kind of kept it close to the cuff here....though the Missus has done Her share of damage shopping. In terms of eating; we've had some nice meals.
There's also a wonderful market within the shopping district as well.
Because of the typhoon; we've got a bit of unfinished business here and will definitely return. Our train is scheduled to leave in the morning so hopefully things will clear up by then.
Either way. We'll be in touch soon!

So pretty! Is that Fushimi-Inari? I spent almost a year living in that part of Kyoto and somehow never went. I guess I'll have to go back. :)
