De-lightful Japan










The national museum of art Osaka. Really cool exhibition by Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama. 







 Kyoto Station by Japanese architect Hiroshi Hara. Kyoto station is the most important transportation hub in KyotoJapan. It has Japan's second-largest train station building (after Nagoya Station) and is one of the country's largest buildings, incorporating ashopping mallhotelmovie theaterIsetan department store, and several local government facilities under one 15-story roof. It also housed the Kyoto City Air Terminal until August 31, 2002.











We are working twelve hours a day now, to get the exhibition finished for Friday. It is slowly getting there. One last day of final preparations, and it is finished.  I am not allowed to post pictures of the exhibition until after 9 of september when it opens.







 The traditional green Japanese roofs floating in the sea of light hidden in the modern city.






 Facade of Uniqlo shop by architects Fujimoto.







 The drums from the festival calling the night over os.








Women and men all over the city dressing up for the summer parties. Even their dogs can come along.

Loving the details

 Sewer
 Don't miss the point...
 Remember to close your garden at night.
 
Toilets speaking to you, making bird sounds or the fake flush sound, all to make you feel well at home any place in town....

Magical green

Today we took the day off. We went to Kyoto to explore the mystical tea houses and temples and let our thoughts drift away in the magical green gardens.

Getting my point

Where is somewhere we were when we were on our way to here, which is where the maid made a balancing act, except focussing was her problem too, so we're waiting to hear if she's still here!!!!

Okay! My English dictionary has never been my best friend, I guess I was to busy climbing the rig.  Well I hope you are getting my points:)  I am writing in English for my Grandfather. He made it possible ( and not so much the maid) for me to go on this trip, which ( and the witch will be staying home from now on ) I am ever grateful for. I therefore wanted to write a blog to keep him posted on my trip.
