Our first trip, Monday, to Kyoto was in a full blown typhoon.
We went back on Wednesday for a glorious day.

The Golden Temple.
Bill had been here when he was 13-years old, and it was just the same as he remembered.
Magical.

Kiyomizu Temple.
One of my favorites.

Himeji Castle.

David and Connie joined us today.
This is the tip top of the castle.
What a spectacular view.

Osaka Castle.
New and old.
Japan is a mix of opposites.

The castle wall.
Can you believe the size of these stones?

David trying to get that ultimate shot.

Osaka Concert groupies.
Aren't they adorable?

Ya gotta love the Coi.
