This update covers Kyoto and Tokyo, which means this is the last Japan update.

We arrived in Kyoto on that Tuesday, I believe. We left on Thursday.

I completed this program in mid-July, so it’d been about 3 months when I made this page. It might be fuzzy on some things.
It’s interesting to note that we found Himeji castle entirely by mistake. Keith, Joe and I decided to wander someplace for the fun of it. Himeji had a really big train station and was the end of a lot of local train lines, so we decided on there. Just outside of the train station, we saw a sign that said “15 minutes to Himeji Castle”. So we found one of the nicest castles in Japan by sheer luck.

I suppose by now this is more so that I have a record of what I did before I forget, but if anybody’s still reading this (aside from those I’ve told about this update), have fun!

This update spans the end of the KIT trip and also covers Kobe (only a couple pictures there).
What we did for the end of the program: SGE party, Bridge tests, Yakiniku, a bit of wandering. The “Bridge test” is where we tested our project for the semester, a balsa-wood bridge. I’m not very good at doing things with my hands (aside from the occasional video game), so ours didn’t do so well, but it’s certainly no fault of my partner.
