Google StreetView

I had the brilliant idea of checking whether or not Google Maps's StreetView had run the streets of Kyoto or not. Well, they have. Click here for a StreetView start right outside my gate (click the little yellow person icon).

Other places that are relevant to me are the nearest grocery store and the north gate of the Ritsumeikan campus.

Coverage doesn't extend into most of the smaller roads, but poking around on this ahead of time might have given me a much better idea of what to expect, and kept me from getting lost a time or two.
