Four Days in Kyoto

 I had three days in a hostel booked, during one of the busiest weeks of the year for Kyoto (the others being Japan's Golden Week in April and the week of Obon in August) assuming I’d get my fill easily in that time.  For all I've seen, and for the night extra I pulled off, I can promise you that I woke up this morning in an air of regret, because four days in Kyoto could never be enough.  I count myself as fortunate for the time I had anyway.  Kyoto is a city unlike any other, and I happened to be there at the turning of New Years.
