Sightseeing in Kyoto
Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 19 October 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.
Tourists dressed and made up like maiko in Kyoto.
Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.
I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

I think as akarui, the poster on the right make me think to Halloween.
But the two ladies are not in the same instant, they are of our world.
Does Halloween exist in Japan?
