The Red Mail Box
Unbelievably it's still there after 35 years, the little red mailbox I hand-made outside my apartment entryway when I was a student at Kyoto University

| Still used by the current tenants |
But it's only a matter of time before the 21st Century catches up
and my legacy in Kyōto vanishes. A new building is going up next door.
School Kids!
The subway is safe enough for school teachers to herd this large group of kindergarteners aboard for a field trip. Kids about this age also commute alone.

Tōji Flee Marlet
The Tōji flee market is once-a-month event similar to the Kitano Tenjin market mentioned below in the May 2010 segment of this blog. . Here you see Buddhist monks chanting the Heart Sutra (Hanya Shingyō) for shoppers and strollers passing through the gate to the inner temple
