Another Kyoto Question

Thanks to all who helped out with my previous "Train to Kyoto" thread. I was able to get lots of valuable info from your replies.

I have a another question concerning Kyoto and some temple/shrine recommendations. I will be in Kyoto for three days and plan on the following: Day 1 hit Nijo and Arashiyama and Day 3 visiting Fushimi Inari in the early moring and then going to Himeji for an early afternoon viewing of the castle. Day 2 is where my question comes in....

I plan on pounding the pavement on Day 2 visiting as many temples and shrines as possible. I am considering Ryoanji, Kinkakuji, Kiyomizudera, Chion-in, the garden at Ginkakuji, Nanzenji, Sanjusangendo, and Heian.

Is my proposed Day 2 possible at all? Am i missing any must see spots? What would you guys add/drop to make the most out of the day? Any input on the logistics of how to make it work is also very much welcomed. I would prefer to not do a big tour group if possible, but a private tour guide on a van is definitely an option.

Thanks in advance.
