Jim Goes to Japan Ep 8
This one is a little short and wierdly edited (as most of my videos are) because the temples in Kyoto don’t really appreciated cameras as much as you and I. Since I spent pretty much my entire time in Kyoto in the temples, there’s not much footage. However, I thought I’d share a little.
I also got to sneak a few snaps, so check my Flickr stream for some Kyoto goodness.
I swear, it’s the most beautiful place on Earth. It’s hard to express just how much focus the Japanese can give to details. While in the gardens of Ginkakuji, there was a group of gardeners attending the moss — just the everday moss that grows no matter what you do was given the same amount of care and attention as their flowers and trees. If you ever get a chance to go to Japan, do not miss Kyoto. It is friendly, beautiful, and moving.

David and I are sitting overlooking our little piece of paradise while watching your film about another piece of paradise, a whole day away. Kyoto is, as you describe, beautiful…thanks to your video. We’ve really enjoyed your posts especially your writing; another of your great talents.
As your adventure comes to a close, no doubt you’re aware that our family, your family and good friends have enjoyed your vacation along with you, every step of the way. How cool is that to travel to the other side of the planet and take us all with you!
