    Kamakura afternoon

    13 de julho de 2018, Japão ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    After lunch we walked to Hokoku-ji Temple (small but beautiful) and then on to Sugimotodera Temple, which was founded in 734. The original steps are still there, but so worn they have built new ones beside them, but the originals are now covered in beautiful moss.

    By now we were drenched...its only mid-80's here but insanely humid - reminds me of the weather we just had in Myrtle Beach. We constantly have a drink in our hands.

    Back to the railway then and on to Hasedera Temple, which is up on a hillside and then the Kotokuin Temple with the Daibutsu Kamakura, or Kamakura Buddha.

    We are now showered and resting in the hotel, trying to scrounge up the energy to head back out to Enoshima for dinner.    Leia mais

    Kamakura morning

    13 de julho de 2018, Japão ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    Had a decent night's sleep at the Prince Kamakura hotel and woke to a beautiful day. Walked to the station for the Enoden Electric Railway and then walked 20 minutes to the Kencho-ji Temple site, which turned out to be one of the most beautiful places of the day.

    We then walked back towards the station to the Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu Shrine, which was super touristy, then to a tasty tempura lunch picked out by Toby.    Leia mais

    We got a little sleep (very little) on the plane, but the ride was really nice. The plane served Japanese and Western food, we had a little of each. We picked up our pre-ordered mifi device at the airport post office and caught a train to our next stop.Leia mais

    DFW PARTY

    11 de julho de 2018, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    Me and mom are listening to Drake. I got some gummies from Starbucks. They taste like flavored dirt. Unlike mom, I’m hyped for the plane flight because flying business class is basically the life.

    DFW

    11 de julho de 2018, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Hardly slept last night I am so excited about this trip! (Not particularly enthusiastic about the 13 hour flight, however.) Toby has me listening to Lil Pump, Diplo, & Drake while we wait to board. Once we are on, we need to get some sleep and try to adjust...Japan is 9 hours ahead.

    Toby is in heaven with these huge seats and trip-related swag. These are the nicest seats I've ever had on a plane, but he still doesn't totally fit!    Leia mais
