Sorry we have not had much time to blog lately but wanted to give you some pics of what we have been up to around Kyoto. On Thursday the students were in the field so Steve and I spent some time in the Kyoto centre.

These are from the market streets in the city centre - you can get anything you want here from traditional food and drinks to socks and teapots.
 |
| Tsukemono Shop - traditional pickles - you serve them with steamed rice as a small side dish |
 |
| There are many fish sellers - these ones were cooked and ready to take home |
In the evening we took the students from NZ, UK and The Netherlands to the city centre to check it out after the days work.
Friday afternoon the students were doing a workshop and Steve was doing his turn at marking so I explored a very very hot city along the river and found this amazing traditional street
On Friday afternoon after the written fieldwork test there was an origami workshop for the students who worked as a team and created these masterpieces

Last night we had the poster presentations - this is a non-competition part of the iGeo but students and Team Leaders are given four stickers to share with the teams they think have done the best job on their countries geographic poster on the theme - traditional wisdom to modern knowledge. We look at fishing methods in NZ
