Day four in Japan had us doing our first tour - we spent the afternoon at several historical spots in Kyoto. The temples and shrines are beautiful! We celebrated Jason's birthday by going out for some delicious food...Chinese food! :-)
At the entrance to every Buddhist Temple there's a washing station like this one - you take the ladel on the stick, scoop up some water, and pour some over each of your hands - it's a spiritual act designed to purify you before you enter the Temple.
