I going to stress again many times in this part of our trip how wonderful having the JR pass was. Once we figured out how to pick ours up and get it set up, the rest was easy going to other cities. We reserved our seats for the most part but in some instances we would jump in the unreserved car and be fine for short trips.
The trains are efficient and clean which makes travelling so much more enjoyable. The people are nice and helpful. If you want to see the Japanese flustered, sit in their reserved seat. Never mind there are other open seats around, they are very mindful of the rules. Don't do it on purpose but you will most likely make some sort of mistake during your stay and cause some major confusion. ;)
On the the photos....and there are a lot today.
The best part about trains is picking out a bento lunch. The kids found a bulgogi jerky that we only found in the Tokyo station.
We did have a nice day to travel but it was more of the same cloudiness in Kyoto. The Kyoto station is pretty large also so I didn't take any pictures of that or the taxi line or our driver's confusion on finding the apartment. Thankfully we had our apartment contact talk to the driver to get the proper directions.
This area alone is bigger than our hotel room in Tokyo. There is another area to the living room and a dining area that I don't think I took pictures of...
We had everything we needed in this small kitchen and a dishwasher!
Like I said, lots of room and space.
So much space!
Japanese bath. Confusing tub since it was all in Japanese. We figured out how to turn it on to fill the tub which eventually overflowed. Luckily its a wet room so the water would drain through the floor. There was a control to keep the water warm in the tub too. That way you can scrub/shower/clean yourself first then soak in the tub, Possible ideas for our master bath...
This school uniform is too cute and I love his backpack.
Hope you enjoyed this post...more to come!
