Thanks Kevin.

I bring it on myself as I do work on contract but never the less my previous one was cut short which spoilt my plans somewhat for this trip. I changed my last excursion to the very short trip home as I was wanting to work whilst I could rather than take two weeks off before finishing my contract early. I had planned to take this next section after I finished my contract.

As it turns out I was able to secure a new contract before my old one was even due to finish and I could have taken those two weeks. But you never know. So instead of a few days at the Sapporo snow festival, which was the original plan, I now find myslef in a drizzly overcast Kyoto.

Not that I am complaining about being in Kyoto.

I will post some pics of my outings in this city later.
