Day 64
Otsu -> Nara
Distance:75km
Rode away from the Ehara's, our bikes over-loaded up with edamame, onigiri, ume-boshi, potato salad, karaa'ge, tamago-yaki, pokari sweat, chocolates and ice wine. Then down river to Uji and towards the ancient heartland of of Japan. Stopped in at beautiful Byodo-in temple, one of the oldest and most treasured in the country (it graces the 10 yen coin). Then down a pleasant bike path all afternoon, stopping just north of the old city of Nara, Japan's first capital.
