Our trip to Kyoto was a little last minute. With the weekend also being a Japanese holiday I had a hard time finding a hotel. Two co workers spent time calling or looking online for me. I spent hours searching the English websites. I even went to the base's Tour and Travel department to see if they could find something. The man that helped me recommended we stay in nearby Osaka and take a train over every day. Whew! We just need a room over our head!
Well, that's all we got.

| Big for Japan! Nothing on the walls was strange. |

| What is this? I don't understand. Where's my card? |

| Step-up into the bathroom. Not fun in the middle of the night. |

| Woohoo! |

| There is no scale here but this is about the size of one person. |
It was convenient to the tourist areas in the city; albeit not up to the price tag we were charged for the weekend. The beds were "western-style" which means "really hard and uncomfortable". While looking around I was startled to find that the Gideon Bible was not in its customary place.
One positive was the breakfast buffet every morning. It had a mixture of tasty food and the best raspberry bread!

| Yum! |
So after a yummy breakfast we filled the water bottles, tied our sneakers, and hit the road. We've got some sights to see.
This sounds a lot like Nana's little, last-minute trips. We're glad you had such a good time!
