Blogger switches to Japanese

So Im trying to post some pictures and write something, but blogger has switched into Japanese. Anyways, we are in Kyoto. We spent yesterday seeing some impressive temples, Kiyomizudera and Higashiyama. We are heading to the Miho museum today for Genevieves birthday. We will be in Kyoto until the 22nd so we can see the Kurama Fire festival and then head to Hiroshima for a day or 2 and then on to Shimonoseki to catch our ferry to China.

We hung out with Lydia Briggs in Tokyo and had a drink with some Cornell people on the top of a great hotel with impressive views of Tokyo. Thank you to her for putting us up for a night. The bullet train to Kyoto was a great experience. Its a much better way to travel than airplanes, so civilized. All in all, a thumbs up for Japan so far.

I am trying to post some pictures to zoomr, but the connection is pretty slow, so i can only get a few in there in the time I have. more to come later.
