So much shopping today! Well, that is once we all got ready… We had planned on meeting down in the lobby at 10, but 3 of the 6 pairs either slept through their alarms or, like us, forgot to set an alarm all together. The sleep in was divine though. So once we all got […]
Read More18,740 steps, 14.89 km walked, 40 floors climbed, 4 layers of clothing, 1 windy hair monster, 2 more dogs in shirts and a LOT of different modes of transportation. After our full feast of new foods last night, we woke up again this morning to a breakfast feast! Us westerners, not being very adventurous in […]
Read MoreToday was finally a day of relaxation! I mean it was a travel day, so there was obviously travel involved, but there were no massive walks, no mountains to climb, no scary adventures to be had. Nevertheless, I am still tired. I somehow don’t think that feeling is going away any time soon. So today […]
Read MoreSo, evidently, no entry yesterday. We practically haven’t had any down time since we’ve been here and it has finally caught up with me. I was gone the second my head hit the pillow last night… and honestly I’m fighting to sit here and write this tonight! So yesterday we had our big Universal Studios […]
Read MoreToday so far, 13,713 steps, 10.05 km, 18 floors climbed, 2 layers of clothing, 2 pets in clothing and 7 kitties! Himeji Castle today!

Today was going to be a semi quiet day – until Tim suggested that we visit the Osaka Castle before heading to the aquarium… I can’t complain though, we got to see some magical things […]
Read MoreTodays tally: 15,595 steps, 10.75km, 14 floors, 3 layers of clothing. This morning was our last morning in Kyoto, and to be honest I’m missing it already! We’ve only travelled a 30 minute train ride away to Osaka, but it feels like another country! The scenery is very different. Instead of temples sticking out in […]
Read MoreTodays tally: 11,929 steps, 8.58 km travelled, 20 floors climbed and 4 layers of clothing. I think I’ve said it about every day, but today was a big day! The alarm was set an hour later than usual today, so a tiny bit of a sleep in for the boys. Not for me unfortunately, I […]
Read More20,393 steps taken, 15.15 km travelled, 14 floors climbed – much less than yesterday, but a big day nonetheless! Another early day for the crew today, so we were up and at it by 8, and after a quick pit stop at that little bakery at the station, we were off, on our way to […]

So after our yummy experience of Tepenyaki last night, we got a somewhat restful night of sleep and were up and at it by 8 o’clock! We had a surprisingly delicious breakfast from a bakery at Kyoto station, […]
