Re: Introduction topic
-----------------------------------
We're planning a two week trip beginning Sept. 14, 2012.

Tokyo, one week, then 9/19 rent a car to drive to Seki City/ Gifu, sword making. 
To-ji Temple flea market on 9/21 and Miho Museum 9/22. 
Explore Kyoto till 9/26, flight to Los Angeles from Osaka on 9/27.

Having a car will allow us to travel off the beaten path.  
I know it will be expensive but with 3 persons + luggage, it'll be easier to see the country side.
Many years ago, we drove from Hiroshima back to Tokyo. 

Looking for a ryokan between  Gifu and Tokyo for the evening of 9/20.

Any recommendations for lodging in Kyoto with parking less than $200 a night?

Thanks,

Douglas Lee
