Tour with Rachel Moore

Day 7 – Travel to Koyasan

Today was a long day of traveling on subways, trains, busses, and cable cars.  We arrived around 4pm at our ryokan, which was the Jokiin Buddhist Temple.  Jokiin means always joyous.  Koyasan is such a beautiful mountain town, though right now it was VERY cold.  They had received some snow right before we arrived, and...

Day 2 – Tour Tokyo

Today was a busy but fun-filled day!  We started the morning going to the Tsukiji Fish Market.  There were SO many  different fresh sea creatures for sale (some still alive).   All the workers were busy milling around, and it was fun to look around at all the different things.

Day 1 – Arriving in Tokyo

To give you a little background, my husband and I already were in Taiwan for a week before we went to Japan (we were visiting my sister for her wedding).  This morning when we left for our flight, we arrived to the airport to find our flight was 5 hours delayed. As  we were flying into  Narita...
