Fancinating Japan Day 5

My Sunshine doll was found to be like this at 5am when I actually wanted to take a picture of outside to show you guys how early the sunrise is in Japan.
*Poor thing, must be too shameful to see us, it's a rainy morning.*Anyway the sunrise is so early that we always jumped out of bed and start thinking what time it is now and thought we were late.
According to Winnie, the rainy season has started and it will be raining for the next couple of days.
-Sigh-
Another 3 hours ride to Kyoto, which was once the capital of Japan, a ancient city with the tallest structure of 57metres as the governor banned high rise buildings. Watched some Kimono show and the shop there selling damn expensive products. In the midest of the show, this stupid irritating china man keep hitting his wrist on my head, treating me like a tripod. I tried to be discreet by just pushing his hand away and turned and give him a glance, but he just don't get it and did not even apologise! Was so pissed off that at the end of the show I just pretend that I have to leave and give him a push, no need to 客氣 when he is being so insensitive. Then he FINALLY LOOKED back and keep looking at me, and I just stare back at him, I did not start all these and first of all you should not take me as a tripod, not to mention that I don't know you AT ALL. Well somehow, message sent across, shall just ignore.
Had lunch in this small restaurant near Kiyomizu Temple 清水寺 which the noodle soup is FANTASTIC! =) Didn't have space to have a second serving though, then we move on to the temple. This temple is "famous" because there is this space whereby many people choose to commit suicide there but they survived despite of the height; as well as the 姻緣石, how it works? Just look. Saw this Japanese girls who tried, quite interesting, didn't dare to try though. Heh.*Kyoto from Kiyomizu Temple.*

After that we move on to 平安神宮 Heian Shrine. MS said that 寺 is for God and 神宮 is for Ghost, so there is no need to clap hands before we pray as what we have done in the temples in Japan. Anyway, we quickly snapped a few pictures and then we took the Shinkansen to Osaka, our final stop for our Japan Trip.
*What is MS doing? Ha. Some clever soul suggest that we 'video' the whole 15 minutes journey from Kyoto to Osaka, and we were actually joking that when we are back in Singapore we would play on the computer and we have to turn the chair sideways so that we will feel that we are actually in the train. So corny.*
Dinner is at Shinsaibashi Dotonbori 心齋橋. Tried but couldn't find what Mom told me to help Auntie to look out for. Had Japanese style of BBQ for dinner and the pork lard almost cause the hazard! LOL. Look at the fire when the oil from the pork dripped onto the fire. I was out getting somemore food and MS and PS were busy cooking, covering the meat with the veggies and ended up...
A fire breakout. LOL.
*PS and the burnt ba-kua*
*I look more professional right? LOL. Actually the burnt meat think was on my side but the rim of the pot blocked it so I didn't see it plus the hazard and that is why it was burnt. LOL.*
Anyway the pork lard was so oily that I feel so uncomfortable after dinner, almost puked after that. (+.+)
Finally, like really finally in this final day, we got the chance to REALLY spend some time shopping! We are SO DEPRIVED of it this round imagine we tried our best to maximize our shopping time that we actually "shopped" at the mini-mart at each resting station! Haha.
Once again dropped dead when I reached the hotel. =)
And there is someone's favourite at the hotel lobby! Xiong Xiong ni de bear bear... see tomorrow's post. =D
