    Kyoto day 2

    April 16 in Japan ⋅ 🌙 12 °C

    Started the morning with a cooking class. Made 2 types of Ramen (miso & soy), gyoza and onigiri. Fun and yummy. Walked around the Gion district which is artsy and lively.
    Mary had a sewing class, I took a nap.
    We took a quick run through the Nishiki market, right before closing, for a snack. Then walked the neighborhood to pick up a few gifts.
    Wanted to try a pizzeria we heard about but it was closed :( . We opted for wagu tacos instead, which were incredible.
    Stopped at our local whiskey bar and found our new favorite Japanese whiskey.
    Home kind of early for an early outing.    Read more
