Finally, we make contact again with Shinobu and meet up this time in Kyoto.
We visited the wonderful Nishi-Hongan-ji temple complex, caught a cab to the Maruyama Park where we had a picnic she’d brought from Kobe, walked through the Chion-in Temple, the Gino district, helped us do some printing, and then directed us to the Kizuki restaurant for sushi unlike any other. A perfect day.
We really hope to see her soon in London. Thank you Shinobu!
