SHINKANSEN!!!

The leg room in these trains is enough for basketball players. And i'm not kidding. For a nation of small people, the Japanese value their leg space.

Train station boxed lunch. 1,000 yen.

I don't know what half the things are in here, but I ate it all. Some of it was weird.

Rice paddys in the "Country". There is no real country side in Japan though.

Kyoto Station. Very cool.

Kyoto Tower. Lets go up there!

Walking around Kyoto

Kyoto tower at night.

The river in Kyoto. I found this place to be really peaceful. One of my favourite spots. Ate lunch here one day.

Shrines.

Spontaneous baseball game Japanese Style.

How to wash your hands. Interesting since 70% of Japanese bathrooms do not have soap or garbage cans. Don't get me started on the garbage cans...

Far NW part of Kyoto. Where is everybody?

This is the station where you wash your hands and mouth before you go into a temple.

Ninna-ji Temple, which was bloody awesome. Another favourite of mine.

I can't remember what Temple these guys are guarding, but they're cool.

Then I stumbled on a graveyard. No joke. It was freaky.

Ryoanji Temple rock garden. You can only count all 15 boulders if you reach some sort of enlightenment. I counted a bajillion.

Kinkaku-ji Golden Pavilion! Also a very cool place.
