Day 5 Japan. When we woke up we went on a bike ride around Kyoto. We were going to go to the handy craft center but it was closed so we biked to the Heian Jingu Shrine, it was filled with orange. we went up to the shrine to get our fortune and wish. When we got our fortune we realized that it was all in JAPANESE!! I tied mine to the tree just in case it was a bad fortune. Then we went into a pretty garden where they had a river and cherry blossoms and lots of stepping stones. There was a covered bridge too. We got fish food and fed it to the little fish and big koi and duck. There was a bride and groom getting married right there!
After the cool garden we went to the Handicraft Center where I bought a big Samurai sword and chopsticks. I was so excited! Then the cashier gave us a little ticket to get a prize from the cashier downstairs and we got postcards. After we went to craft center we went to the water and played on rocks and I got three bucks out of it. The big rocks were boulders that were formed into a bridge. we checked out of the Ritz Carlton and checked into Hinoe A.K.A. "the Joint." We got some Chinese food while our room was being setup. When we got into our room it was on the lobby floor so everyone could see inside, even a little girl came into our room from the lobby!! We walked around our area. There were cool little streets with lanterns. My mom went into a Kyoto kitchen without knowing what it was. We walked down and said we were just looking and he said it was very rude to just walk in and out of a restaurant. It was embarrassing but funny. Then we got some food at this Italian restaurant it was nice. There was also this light show that I thought was going to be a party but really they just projected Kaleidoscope videos onto a rock garden. What made me happy was getting soft serve.
