From the Old Capital to the New

Hey everyone, Ms. Morello here. It is 730 in the am here in Tokyo, and if I can get the kids out the door with all their bags packed by 8 am, it will have been a successfull morning! We are leaving Tokyo today for Kyoto - the old capital of Japan and the place to see some of the most beautiful temples in the whole world. We will be taking the Shinkansen - the famous Japanese bullet train, which the kids are very excited about.

Yesterday was one of those travel days that will remain etched in my memory forever. We visited two of the best places in Tokyo - Harajuku and Shibuya. There were so many hilarious moments yesterday, but we got in so late that the kids didnt have time to write about it. Thats the unfortunate thing about travel blogging - in order to do it, you must take time away from your actual travels, and yesterday I decided it was much more important for them to sleep! But I will get them to write as soon as possible - keep checking back!
