2013 Travel Dispatch #6 (Kyoto and more Temples)































We did a bunch more sightseeing today (ie. chasing temples), but I'm going to spare you all that, for now at least, to just respond to the show of hands for the 80 year comparison pics. Got some pretty good shots today and will probably get them out at some point but for now this is about all I have the energy for.

The above photo was when Fran's grandmother was at Empuku-ji in 1933.



























This is the photo we took yesterday with Fran, Tokuman Roshi and the current crop of monks, almost exactly eighty years later. Everything has changed but the buildings and the sense of the place.

  1. Now THAT is very cool. But where's Fran's mink stole?
