Fall in Kyoto Kamo River

Kamo River秋の鴨川

Fall is finally upon us in Kyoto.

Following the departure of the recent typhoon, cool temperatures and deep blue skies replaced the late summer mugginess of recent weeks.

Like many, we got on the bike and headed for the Kamo River.

En route, we passed a children's festival and Nishijin. Ah, fall in Kyoto!

Both banks in the Demachiyanagi area were busy with cyclists, people out for a stroll, last-gasp sunbathers, and lots of people playing soccer, tennis, and other ball games.

White herons meanwhile were busily hunting in the glistening waters in front of us.

After a bento lunch and a long talk, we headed into town for dinner and drinks.
