Thanks Larry, glad you enjoyed the videos! I think a lot of people remember Kyoto Station, it is a pretty amazing huge building. Really unique, even in Japan. Also glad you enjoyed Kyde's duck story, haha. She says her mom "wasn't thrilled." hahahaha. -Eric

2022-02-07 06:58:51 +0000 UTCI really enjoyed your trip to Kyoto, Eric! I recognized several of the spots you visited from my trip years ago unfortunately I never made it to the Bamboo Forest. I remember how huge the Train Station was with this series of escalators which took you to the top observation area. I could look down on the tracks and watch the trains. Kyde, I received my postcard yesterday and just watched you tell the story. I thought it was really funny as I could just imagine all the mess in the room not to mention the smell!! What did Mom and Dad have to say about all that? I can imagine that too ha ha ha ! Thank you Kyde, Eric, for the wonderful card and videos, take care, have a great weekend!

2022-02-04 16:23:53 +0000 UTCOh, the app I was talking about is like an OCR reader for old style Japanese hand-written text, but it only turns it into actually legible japanese text, it doesn't do translation. A Japanese friend showed it to me when neither of us could read some stuff lol . There is no "perfect" machine translation, especially for English to Japanese yet. I could talk extensively why, but the sort answer is: the way each language represents context within itself is incompatible. That's a lot of why google translate fails. That said, google translate does a decent job of OCR reading "standard" Japanese, which is handy! -E
