Kyoto in Style

Good morning from the Sakura Terrace Hotel in Kyoto.
Still not quite sure which way is up but having had a great night's sleep here, I'm looking forward to exploring this city today with Kate and Roger. We got off to a great start by being bumped up to business class on the flight out and so am fully anticipating that the style of our start will continue!

And this evening we meet up with Louise and Kouichi who will be driving from the Nagoya area to spend the weekend here. It'll be good to have our gourmet advisers as we had to do a lot of pointing at pictures on the menu last night. Still, that reaped us a delicious supper ( lots of Udon noodles, shrimp, clams and broth) and included a conversation (of sorts- thanks to Google translate!) with three older Japanese men who ended up giving us gifts and bowing delightfully as they bade us farewell.

Now to address technical difficulties....can't seem to access photos to post on this blog. Watch this space...
