For Kyoto Day 2, Nijo Castle was our first stop. Well, after a konbini breakfast of a Famichiki in some bread made especially for it, and coffee. We just walked around the grounds, which was still pretty expansive.

There were fish in the moat water of the innermost keep (idk if I'm using the right words) and there is a small vending machine for fish food. So of course I fed them fishes.

There was also a small museum and a gift shop where I, wouldn't you know it, got some more postcards.

We tried the viral 10-yen cheese pancake on our way to lunch. It does not cost JPY10, it looks like the 10-yen coin. It's great for me because I like cheese and pancakes, but to be honest it's nothing special, but still a silly little treat.

We had lunch at Kyoto Tonkatsu Katsuda. It was a small place and every one is facing the food prep area so I felt really self-conscious about taking a lot of photos and videos, so they're not that great. It did give me a chance to savor the experience since it was our first time with this kind of dining.

They cook the tempura fresh in front of you in courses and everything was amazing.

The famous Kyoto street, Sannenzaka was packed. We just walked through stopping for a little bit for some photos.

The Shōsei-en Garden is a garden in the middle of what seems like a mainly residential area. I think we paid JPY1,000 for two tickets. There were barely other people, which was nice, added to the calmness of the place.
