Koyoto Night Outing

Having spent a very full day out in the bus it was decided tonight we will go and find the Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine on our own.

Before we could do that I had to catch a bus with the tour leader to go and pick up our prepaid VFT tickets to get us from Osaka to Tokyo at the end of the itinerary. Ken is such a great support to his guests. I also then had time to plan with Ken our movements tomorrow which is a free day on the trip.

By the time I got back it was dinner time so we ate across the road at a Japanese teppanyaki pancake restaurant that Ken recommended . It was squeezey in the booth but the food was great.

Next we had planned to master the train system which we had mixed success at after we caught an express and missed our stop. All part of the fun.

Eventually at about 9pm we hiked up to the Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine. The entry is through 10000 brightly painted orange gates. It was quite hilly and hard to see the paths at night but we managed and achieved our objective. Weird doing this shrine at night.Okumaya devam et
