Update from Kyoto

We have enjoyed our last few days in Kyoto immensely. We have visited many historical places, learned how to pray at both a Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, enjoyed noodles for lunch, sushi for dinner, local wine and beer, and plenty of coffee and tea in-between. We did partake in English style afternoon tea in our hotel for some respite and discovered green tea scones! These are served with strawberry jam and clotted cream of course.

We are headed to the Osaka to begin our journey home.
