Kyoto

After 3 really busy days in Hiroshima, we took the nightbus to Kyoto.

We were lucky to arrive in a really nice hostel, flexible staff, no crazy rules. Nice fellow backpackers. Excellent. We had time to relax, do homework, cruise the city by bus and by foot - we saw loads of temples and shrines. We actually decided that after Kyoto we would cross both shrines and temples OFF our 'to-do' list :-)
We ate good local food and enjoyed the days.

It was in Kyoto that we thought of Taiji, it was in Kyoto to that we got in contact with the Save the Dolphins team and agreed to take the train down to the south of the Wakayama prefecture.
