RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING ON THEIR HEADS ... IN KYOTO

I arrived this evening in Kyoto -- one of my favorite cities in Japan -- under police escort. Well, technically speaking, the police weren't exactly escorting me. It's more like they were serving as comic relief. I couldn't help noticing that, due to the rain, they were wearing white rain coats, surgical masks and shower caps over their police uniforms. So, when I noticed a pair of officers taking the escalator to my hotel, I whipped out my Spycam and zipped passed them to get a good shot. I wonder what they wear when it snows ...?

  1. They look mighty sanitary. My deceased husband enjoyed serving the U.S. army in Japan

  2. Glad you finally made it. Hope you do not get to see snow.

  3. Think a traditional, New England yellow slicker would be preferable
