Have fun! But watch out for bikers, they run you 
over where you ain't expecting them... and ignore 
any English t-shirts if you don't want to die 
laughing ("Thereal Isation"). 

Be sure to visit the Gion corner in Kyoto. 

And in Kyoto, if you happen to meet a young cat 
with a tabby mask and 5 round tabby spots on his 
back and a tabby tail, I mean brown tabby, please 
let me know when you're back... he's our little 
Tama we saved from cars...

And Zelgadiss says: Always buy enough to drink. I 
recommend Calpis - Try Happy. Calpis makes active!
