Kyoto River

kyoto takano kamo river

鴨川? 高野川?

I don’t remember if this is the Kamo or Takano River. What I do remember is that cloud scared me a bit as I was on a bike and far from home. Thunder, lightning, and heavy rain started soon after this photo. I took refuge in the nearby Demachi Masugata Shotengai. This photo happened three years and two days ago.

After 45 days in Denmark, Sweden, the Czech Republic, and London, today I’m heading back to the USA. That means loads of waiting in airports and the ability to finally get around to processing photos like this one from three years ago in Kyoto.

I have never been fortunate enough to be in Fukuoka for the first half of July to witness first hand the Hakata Gion Yamakasa, but the display, in miniature, at the nearby museum is pretty cool.
