A little bit of Kyoto

A gallery of images from Kyoto during the Jidai Matsuri (The Festival of Ages, a parade starting at the Kyoto Imperial Palace showcasing over 10 centuries of the city's history), of course a couple of temple/shrine shots though the weather was less than cooperative and a rather wet trip to Toei's Eiga Village which is like Universal Studios though on a much smaller scale. Enjoy!

I wish you would've seen the look on my face when that thing surfaced out of the water....Godzilla maybe but a refugee from a Spielberg flick...nahhhhh.
Cheers!

everything very traditional and cultured, as expccted from kyoto.
though the jurassic park dinosaur is a tad misplaced. :)
