The Harmons Take Japan By Storm

I haven't written in a while because my parents came to visit! I never thought I would see the day when June and Ken Harmon set foot in Japan. They were here for 9 days and we had a great time. Here we are at the entrance gate to Nijo Castle in Kyoto.
Gen had the camera for this weekend, and he's into the candid shots. My mom was tickled by the schoolkids' uniforms. Everyone wears a uniform over here, public and private schools.
Kinkakuji, Kyoto. Mom and Dad arrived in Tokyo on Thursday, and we spent Thursday and Friday in Tokyo, then took a trip to Kyoto. Then back to Tokyo on Monday, and the left on Friday. A whirlwind trip.
Here we are at a Chinese restaurant near the canal in Kyoto. It was really hot during the day, but cooled off to make the nights quite pleasant. Dad was so comfortable he almost fell asleep at the table!
Gen talked this snazzy group into taking a picture with us. We're such dorks.
