The Chinese blood in me was in hyper mode last Saturday. After we’ve finally decided to do Kyoto & Nara sightseeing tour, we discovered that: 1- there was at least a one day pre-booking requirement by the agency and 2- that the tour is booked to the hilt until June 7. By then, we would be in the Philippines. The tour package cost 15,400 yen per person and it was like a blessing in disguise as our adventure to Kyoto & Nara that started at 7AM and ended 13 hours later only cost us 2,510 yen per pax.
We rode almost all types of land transpo on that day – inter-city train, intra-city train, bus and taxi. In Kyoto, we saw the Ni-jo castle. We would have wanted to see the Kyoto Imperial Palace that day however it was closed. Para siyang government office na closed on weekends. In Nara, we went to the Nara Park (where deers freely roam around. MC calls them Bambi), Todaiji Temple (considered the world's largest wooden building) and took pictures in front of the National Museum. Both Ni-jo Castle and Todaiji Temple are World Heritage sites. We also saw the Shinkansen or the bullet train. Dinner was at McDo again for the second straight day.
