we are so happy right now because we are finally getting out of Takayama yeah
like there was so much rain these last few days that they cancelled all the
buses all the trains yeah and we've been trying for a while now like coming to
the bus terminal are we going today many of the buses have been canceled
Ohia the highway been shut down yeah and in the last hour like what do you call
this the 23rd hour at the 11th hour they told us oh no it's gonna be
canceled and just as we were gonna get booked a hotel to stay in Takayama our
bus to Kyoto goes it's running and so we're leaving in 10 minutes we haven't we
haven't grabbed dinner or anything like that we're just so happy to be going
there we already had a reservation in Kyoto with an Airbnb I see everything's
on schedule I ran over to the family mart salmon and
Snickers and mango flavored something extra fresh week see ya thank you Go Go
I barely made it but yeah we got something to eat all right
dinner time this is a family Martha dinner yep thank you very much Sam very
generous of you to run over there still sweating from it yeah looks like regular
potato chips we have some sushi with salmon you've got it with the skin
grilled skin no skin so yeah we're just really going to dig on in serve with the
chips I'm just so tired it's been any crazy day we ended up doing a day
trip yeah to see if we could get the later boss
which hadn't yet been cancelled that's good
pepper so I think we're gonna arrive vote 10 something in Kyoto so we'll get
there when we get there when we get there we start getting here tonight I'm
still in disbelief guys that were actually going
we were Stewart we were like mere moments away from hotel here yeah
because the other option where we could have done more backtracking would have
involved a bus and a train and there's only three times the cost yeah
we figured did the math and it would have been cheaper for us to stay the
night in the budget hotel yeah a little awfully a deal
but anyways have English et ooh the engines on I think we're gonna be on
the move soon it's 4:15 up and the AC is blasting excellent good
yeah good family much sushi wonderful
now this is the biggest collection of vending machines I have seen at one spot
this is at a rest stop here check this out I have all kinds of different things
this one is just purely for coffee over here more coffee
you can believe it and if there wasn't enough coffee to begin with another
vending machine section we fill the coffee so Sam was just admiring a
collection of vending machines here at the rest stop I've never seen so many
real there are six in a row they were just dedicated for coffee if
you can believe oh that's pretty quirky anyways that first part of the drive was
incredibly scenic it was even nicer than the last bus ride we had like it's just
amazing going through these different rural sections going through mountains I
think what I'm most impressed the boat is just like how incredible the
engineering is in Japan yeah so many tunnels the bridges I'm just still in
all that we got on this boss to be honest yeah and we just have a short
little stop yeah 18 minutes not even no still have about ten maybe we'll go in
here and take a look
second stop and final stop before we reach Kyoto so this is pretty exciting
making a really good time I think we're gonna arrive there a lot earlier than we
had imagined yes read the time wrong on our ticket you did we no longer have the
ticket so we're just kind of along for the ride yeah anyways there's a shop in
the back Sam's feeling like he needs a snack little peckish I don't feel like
I've had anything substantial do you
know what I think I just got myself walk sushi I mean look at the fish and
apparently the sign said it's gonna be 800 yen and when I went to pay it was
only 400 so literally you and did a discount off - Jamie - yeah I knew they
did this in the grocery stores but I had no idea they did it like a month like
he's Danny indeed if he is turn it over at a truck stop which by the way calls a
lot of transports now let's take a look and see if it is how's it look whoa look
at that okay interesting there's eight pieces so okay yeah and now
fine hour but as you can see the parking lot it's just full of trucks who are
spending the night there in a haystack was there all these others big semi
trucks the only bus
no wasabi no soy sauce this is something I have no idea what I'm having
because it's actually she's a big block of rice only give me a carving knife
fish is obviously been sliced brunch was the car of the rice well do my own work
you have fun with that I know it didn't look too appetizing to me when you're in
like one song I'm thinking that's dinner on the road we have a surprise made it a
major surprise is that Kyoto much earlier than we had anticipated for some We got here at 9:15
weird reason we thought we were gonna arrive past 10 it was gonna be a rude up
but yeah we just have to take the metro one stop and then we can walk to our
place yeah carrying around garbage because as always it's like nearly
impossible to find a garbage can. anywhere in Japan yeah
update not thrilled about this but we are walking we couldn't figure it out
like we only need to go one stop but again we've got the whole dilemma jr
line subway lines new way we've been out in the Sun all day our brains to start
functioning and simmer like it's only a kilometer and a half or just a leg it
and like all the information boots at the metro station how closed for the day
so we spend a lot the money that we would have got on a ticket on a sudden
pretty sparkling I'm sure instance that I'm drenched in sweat it's a little bit
gross how much what I have in my body at the moment I'm just a little
disappointed that after like almost two months here we still can't figure out
how to ride the Metro / train / well they are frigid there's just so many
lines and it's very exhausted give us he'll give us a pass on this one yeah
well good morning guys from cute oh yeah we just fell asleep last night like we
were so hot and tired from that walk you jumped up four pegs if it's four blocks
yeah so we're gonna finish off that little Travel day vlog today you know so
basically we're heading out for breakfast now we're gonna try to find a
coffee shop you know and then when we come back we'll give you a little tour
in the apartment and we'll let you know the price of the bus openly oh yeah we
haven't even mentioned that
has arrived at the table definitely unusual this isn't one of what I would
normally consider breakfast food so this is called a Danish pastry yeah and it
has soft-serve ice cream in the middle oh he's cream I thought admit I thought
it was delicious oh wow oh yes starting off on a sugary high
that wait till you see what I've done I've got toast with fighters the red
Azuki beans mm-hmm okay that's a very thick piece of yeah so I know instead of
Jam yeah you put the beans at the bean paste on and then I also got an iced
coffee that has the sweet red beans as well as houki beans at the bottom so
yeah an interesting breakfast and I think that the atmosphere in this coffee
place is pretty cool like you're saying it kind of reminded you of like a Swiss
Chalet back in Canada or something it's really nice in here good look guys all
about the beans this morning red bean paste egg is the first time I've ever
used beans as a spread yes I mean I've had like salty like canvas with the
British breakfast that's pretty tasty
mmm no one that actually works yeah no so they're poor in syrup syrup give it a
stir I'm curious to see why let's go pretty
look at the bottom what coffee beans beans taste reminds me of the public two
years ago ah she actually got the beans through the straw mm-hmm
I didn't need to put all that syrup in there it's like that it's more like a
milkshake or dessert at this point oh hello and we promised an apartment tour
so we're gonna give that to you right now yeah so this is a very small space
but there's all these different little compartments and components to it
there's like all these doors we're in the middle of it we just plugged in so
come on in this is where you leave your shoes yeah step on to the wooden floors
so let's show you this tiny kitchen okay so up here are just peanut butter yes
spin how long has that lasted like for me to eat honey a very small amount of
dishes small little kitchen here and we haven't used anything on here look down
there and you actually have a microwave on top of the fridge tiny little fridge
which is pretty funny we can barely open it so yeah that's not coming to the
bathroom okay so the bathroom is divided into two yes so look to the toilet and
then in here which I kinda really like this Japanese style because you know
what's annoying if someone's taking a shower they block access to the toilet
here no you can you can both be using it potentially so come on it this is a wet
bathroom yeah floor is wet right now yeah and for a shower head that says
tiny it actually has like tremendous water pressure it's another one of those
Japanese systems where you turn it like this for the sink to flip it over for
the shower and then it starts coming out of here it's really small basically
there's no curve in not specifically where sprayed everything gets
yeah and this is the coolest room come over here guys check this up this is our
work / dining area dining living space check that out
this is we want this space we eat here and this is altar office it's
convertible we just take basically take the computers off and that's where we
have our meals as well yeah and also if it's for people renting this apartment
they put food tongs in this room for two more people love but not least have our
bedroom also it's an air conditioned in here to go to air conditioning and the
best part guys by far is the bed we've had some one comfortable beds recently
and this is like a dream it's like a pillow it's so soft we normally just
thinking to it you know we normally prefer harder beds but this is so soft
and comfortable I can actually fall asleep right now so all right so I guess
that concludes the tour that Andrew does and I may just fall asleep at the moment
so we'll see you guys oh wait a second no and we can't end the video because we
promised people prices how did we get from Takayama to Kyoto by bus of course
by price that was equivalent of forty dollars per person or US dollars per
person consider taking the bus in Japan guys that's a definite budget travel tip
from us okay and now you can find goodbye and happier yes bye guys
