out and about in kyoto

Saturday, we went to Kyoto to visit Satoshi's grandma's grave.

Then we walked to Ichijo-modoribashi to check out their sakura (cherry blossoms)...well, it was only 1 tree, but it was still beautiful.

We then walked to Demachiyanagi to see the trees at Chotokuji.

There were many tourists photographing the blooms (including us)...

Afterwards, we went down to Fushimi.

This area has very clean water so there are sake breweries especially two major ones, Gekkeikan & Kizakura.

We also spotted some early blooming cherry trees inside a school.

All in all, it was a beautiful day despite all the junk in the air.
