Danielle Steps taken: 352,000 Kilometers walked: 210km Kilometers travelled: 23,480km This Singapore and Japan trip has been life changing. Not only have I come home with a husband, but I have had the most magical experiences in countries that I love with some of the people I love most in this world. Singapore was such […]
Read More12,901 steps taken – 413.44 km travelled Travel days are always long but exciting. This morning was a nice and relaxed start, with alarms set for 8 o’clock, but really no rush to do anything. Checkout was at 10, and Drew and I were joined by Brad for some last chance temple hunting in Osaka! […]
Read More16,633 steps taken Beef day! We travelled into Kobe by train, and coming out of the station, you could immediately tell what this city is known for. You could smell the delicious scents of grilling beef down every street we went near! But our first step wasn’t to follow our noses towards the food smells, […]
Read More24,364 steps taken – 15.41km travelled Still being a little unwell, we had a slow start this morning, only leaving the hotel just before 11. Drew and I went solo for most of today, with our first stop being a temple nearby the hotel. Imamiya Ebisu Shrine was a very quiet and intimate experience, as […]
Read More17,719 steps taken – 9.66km travelled After such a massive build up to yesterday, I have finally succumbed to this god awful cold that I have been battling for the last few days. But despite me being totally zonked out all day, it was another travel day! We packed up and left the air bnb […]
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! We started a little later than we probably should have, but we were up and out by about 10 this morning. We seemed to all be a little crabby this morning, […]
Read More20,116 steps, 14.24km, 13 floors climbed, 2 layers of clothing, 7 french bulldogs, 2 “doge’s” and countless pets in clothes. 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 […]
