Moves update
It is true that we have been eating a lot, but I should let you know about our “output” so that you can make your own judgement whether the our input is in balance… Or not.
Friday, 20.6 km walking
Saturday 15.1 km walking
Sunday 13.0 km walking
Monday 13.4 km walking
Tuesday 13.9 km walking and 11.4 km cycling
Wednesday 14.8 km walking and 7.3 km cycling
Thursday 15.7 km walking
Today … We’ve already done. 13.3 km and we’re not finished yet.
At this rate, in a little over a week, we will have walked more than 150km and ridden nearly 20km as I relax in my comfortable Shinkansen seat going @ 250 or so km/h back to Tokyo. We do have a rather fine dinner booked!
I’ll drink a Suntory Premium Malts to that achievement.
Kyoto Skyline
Just taken from the Kyoto Station Skywalk.
Coffee time
More hand drip goodness, this time a large coffee shop in downtown Kyoto.
Lunch on Shinkasen to Kyoto
Bento bought from Kinokuniya @ Tokyo Station!
Bye Tokyo… See you next week
Those few days flew. But boy it was fun. But luckily for us we will be here again next weekend.
Waiting… In the middle if Chuo Dori, Ginza.
There are 12 Floors of goodies here!
If that’s your petite fours selection, then I am moving to Japan.
We visited Les Creations de Narisawa last night for dinner.
There weren’t too many decisions to be had, other than whether or not to go for the wine pairing. I am not sure that was really a hard decision! The wine pairing involved an exploration of Japanese, French and German wines over a 35 year period! Wow!
In any case, all this simplicity and lack of decision making was blow away at the end when the petite four trolley was brought over for us to choose some.
The tiny tasting light of macarons? The Apricot jelly? Green tea mochi? Seasonal macarons. Cigar biscuits, oh oh oh so many I can’t even remember them all. This must be part of the selection criteria for the waiters.
Have a look for yourself – it was so big we couldn’t fit it into a single photo. It was taken with out Lytro – so you can refocus it by pointing to the part you want to focus on.

Getting ready for Japan
This is a test post to see if everything is working.
I look forward to catching a bullet train! This should post to Facebook and Twitter.
