Cat & Dave on the Trans-Siberian Railway
Hello! Welcome to our tumblr. We are leaving Japan on April 9th for a month long journey through Russia via Trans-Siberian railway, and also stopping in Moldova for a week before returning to the USA. Due to the nature of our travel (and internet access) updates will be sporadic.

We visited Iwatayama Monkey Park in Arashiyama, Kyoto. Upon entering the park, there are many signs in both English and Japanese warning visitors to be careful. We were both nervous because we heard the Japanese macaques like to grab things out of your hands and pockets. Needless to say, it was scary to carry a camera as we walked up the mountain so I didn’t get any pictures of the walk up. When we reached the top there was an observation area where visitors could go inside and watch the monkeys. We thought it was funny that we were the ones in the cage looking out as the monkeys had a ball.
