We woke up to a perfectly beautiful day. We headed out by bus to visit Chionin temple. The buildings on the temple site are so amazing. The architecture of ancient Japan is so different from anything you would see in the United States. While visiting the site we sat down to take a rest for a couple of minutes and eat a small snack. Later we realized Corey lost the coin purse we just bought the day before to put our coins in. We had to hike back to the place he left it. Unfortunately it wasn’t there. It only had between $5-$10 of Japanese coins in it but still a loss. I was worried that he had put his credit card in there and his bills but luckily it was just coins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After spending most of the day at the temple site we walked to the old imperial palace. It was really neat to walk around and see the ancient palace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We climbed so many stairs today and walked over 12 miles. By the time we were back at the hotel my feet were so tired and sore. Hopefully tomorrow has less walking to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
