Lost in Kyoto: something I thoroughly suggest you do

Lone street sweeper on a mountain road in the north west suburbs of Kyoto...


5 years later is this the same guy, in the exact same location, with the same broom, captured by Google street view?

edit Nov 09... damn! google reshot most of Kyoto mid/late 2009 and no longer has the image I mentioned above... but... he's still there just a few more paces down the street and on the other side ...and now he has an electric leaf blower.

freaky... or what?
