Well, don't feel too bad because the only thing they really have in common with Saiyuki is the name pairing, and the same could be said for Naruto as well. But they are incredibly beautiful and in a lovely park area as well, so I do hope you are able to get back and see them sometime. I'm sorry to hear about the food poisoning. Seems the Kyoto leg of your trip has been a bit wretched this time. I hope it improves.
