I'm going to be doing our trip in several different posts. There is so much to tell about and I don't want to completely overwhelm you and overload you with pictures. So, you'll be getting a post a day for the next week or so. I'm still trying to pick up the pieces of my life right now. Between being sick for so long, my trip to UT and then our trip to Japan, my life is a mess right now. My kids need my attention and so does my house. I've never felt more disorganized. 
The day after we got to Tokyo, we packed up and went to Kyoto. This was my favorite part of our entire trip. It was about a 2 hour bullet train ride from Tokyo. This picture was taken outside of our hotel room in Kyoto. Rob was getting ready to leave for business meetings and I was getting ready to go sightseeing with his boss' (girl) friend.
We had a wonderful breakfast courtesy of Rob's boss the morning after we got there. 
Kay and I went to a couple different temples in Kyoto. They were really neat and the grounds were gorgeous.
Before we finally found our way to the temples, we got very lost. We walked miles in the opposite direction. It turned out to be the highlight of my trip though. It was so pretty and we were able to experience the "back country." 
More on Kyoto tomorrow...
