Very nice. Is there any special meaning or purpose for the red/brown color on the historical buildings?

The Osaka/Kyoto experience comes to an end, and once again I thank Shinpachi for making the time available to show us around some highlights of these great cities.

On to Tokyo!

Gotta love clear instructions. I was very thankful for my cell phone GPS when I went to Vancouver a few weeks ago and don't get me started on what walking through the downtown core at 4:30am is like. Awaiting the tour Wayne.

Thanks Guys.

Well we had a bit of daylight left so we went for a walk to visit the Hama Rikyu Gardens around the corner, on the way we saw some young Japanese ladies in their traditional dress and they were most happy for me to snap a picture. On to the gardens...
