Nara to Kyoto

Left Nara at noon. Trained it to Kyoto. We're getting good at trains. Arrived to rain but we were able to check into our hotel early. Our extra bag was waiting for us. The baggage delivery service is a great convenience. Ten dollars sends a suitcase to any hotel in Japan.
After strategically unpacking and tetrissing our belongs in our Japanese style(small) room, we set out to check out the neighborhood.
It's super lively with lots of shops and restaurants all around us. With our hiking stuff packed and set to go on ahead to tokyo we are able to buy things we want to bring home. Mary and I both bought Yukatas (look it up). We seem to be assimulatng to the culture well. I browsed my first tackle store and can't wait to get to tokyo.
Enjoyed snacks, dinner and a whiskey flight before heading to 7/11 for the world famous creme brulee desert to bring home. Looking forward to tomorrow.Read more
