nara & kyoto

The next day we woke up early so that Satoshi could check out Nara for an upcoming tour

There were definitely more deer to the amount of foreigners

Um if you are gonna hold the deer senbei be prepared to be surrounded immediately by hungry deer

You should’ve seen all the screaming tourists, and some kids were definitely traumatized by the deer…but that’s what happens if you’re holding their snacks

We went to Todaiji & Kasuga Shrine both places had increased their admission fees, I think this deters those just wanting to use the property to film their videos for social media

It was another gross humid & hot day

I bought this because we really needed it

Friends Y & Hiromi met us in Kyoto for an early dinner (17:00)

Talking and eating non-stop for 2 plus hours, we hope they had a nice time too

It was a short trip to Kansai, the heat and humidity were brutal but we were happy we got to do, see and eat the things we had set out to do.

It is the start of September but the heat doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon
