Sorry I haven`t updated in a while, been struggling to find a decent interweb connection.
So, Hiroshima, probably the most peaceful place i`ve been in a loooooonnnnnng time.

The group and I went to the peace park on the first full day, beautiful!
The next day was one of our group members birthdays, so in the evening we went out for a meal and then went to kareoke, I had to prove that I could sing dragonforce , so that was fun :)
Afterwards we hit Nagasaki

I wasn`t overly fond of nagasaki, but due to the long travel time from hiroshima, we ended up only spent one full day in nagasaki.
And finally yesterday evening we made to Kyoto.
Now when I used to think of Kyoto , I thought it looked all like this http://blog.asiahotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/garden-staircase-kyoto.jpg
But the truth is it looks alot like this http://c0170351.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/127_6_l.jpg
which threw me completely, we spent today wandering around various temples , castles and even a zen Gardern. But todays main event was when we all got our free time , me and a few other members of our group went to see some traditional dance by a group called Geiko & Maiko

I was swept away by the beauty of it all, when I get back i`ll upload a video of some of what I saw.
Last but not least we went searching for Geisha, we saw one , but I didn`t get any pictures.
Tomorrows a free day, so I`m ging to try and find the thouand Torii gates http://www.jaywye.com/wp-images/japan2006/dsc_3828_fushimi_gates_1000.jpg
I may not Post again until I reach Tokyo, it depends on if Mt Fuji has an internet connection ( and if its any good )
