I met up with Setsuna, a friend from UMass that I hadn't seen in around a year!!
 |
| It's been so long! |
Our first stop was Fushimi Inari Taisha
 |
| Saw a familiar face at the train station |
 |
| One of Japan's most famous shrines |
 |
| Fox statues, representing Inari |
 |
| Many torii gates in a row |
 |
| Companies purchase gates with their names on them |
 |
| Lots of cats around |
 |
| Two adorable cats! |
 |
| A friendly Shiba |
 |
| Kanon surrounded by Jizo statues |
Afterwards, we went to the bamboo forest at Arashiyama, another of Kyoto's famous landmarks. By this time it was getting dark, and the bamboo forest looks amazing at night.
Finally, we rode a river boat and watched traditional cormorant fishing. It was hard to get many good pictures, but it was very enjoyable.
