Miraculously, it was sunny today! All this week, it was supposed to rain today, but the forecast changed yesterday!
I met Tan-san at Gion-shijyou (祇園四条) and we walked to the ex-imperial palace after a nice snack. The walk itself was much more enjoyable than anything else, because it was a genuine eyeful. Once we got to the palace, there were a lot of people but it was a unique opportunity to see the inside of the grounds, as you usually need a reservation.

Then off to Uji and Byodouin. We went inside and then walked around for a while. Our last destination was sushi, but since we were kind of waiting around for our bellies to make more room for the stuff, we went all the way home before visiting a sushi place nearby.
