We got up and had one final breakfast at our beautiful hotel in Kyoto, which we were very sad to leave. But we needed to get back to Tokyo for the last four days of our journey! We rode the Bullet Train back to Tokyo. We snacked on lobster chips, enjoyed Brice's favorite matcha ice cream, and counted our blessings for the couple hours long train ride. We're finally starting to get our bearings in this country! And the view of Mt. Fuji from the train was otherworldly.

For Part 2 of our travel diaries to Japan from 2024, we're headed to Kyoto & Osaka! Kyoto was a sleepier part of Japan, but the beautiful shines and temples are a MUST SEE, and cannot be missed! Osaka on the other hand...

Here's our extensive itinerary and guide for Japan (Part 1)! We started in Tokyo, went to Kyoto, Osaka (for a day trip), and then back to Tokyo before heading home. What a whirlwind bucket list trip of a lifetime!
