Woke up with Dee not feeling well and Si with the sniffles - we have definately wound down now!
Got the shinkansen to Kyoto which is huge!!! Have both got used to the non-city side of life that it was a bit too much to tackle - especially for a tired Dee (who peanut decided to kick all night again).
Got a local train to Inari to see the Fushimi Inari Torri gates - never-ending, set in the mountains but beautiful! Dee even had a short walk to see them, but then decided the steps up were far too much.
Back to Kyoto where we got a loop bus around the city and watched it all go by. Craved sweet and sour chicken - no chance so ended up in an Italian where we were told our order was too large! Needless to say a hungry Si and pregnant Dee got through the lot!
Meeting Toshi tomorrow so hoping to have some chinese then - we know we're in Japan but Dee's wanting everything but sushi - have talked about eating in seperate restaurants one day so Si can eat something decent!
Off to another Toyoko Inn tomorrow which is closer to Osaka shinkansen station so better for us in terms of moving on.
Bye for now,
Us 3 x

Peanut Night-Owl!
Dee, try playing some soothing music when you want to sleep ..... no carbs before bed - it might work.
