So I lied to you guys- No kimono's or Japanese Dance, but I did go to the golden palace and a bunch of other really ancient cool places
Yeah, today we took off slightly early to go tour 3 places. First up was this really cool (yet oddly touristy) temple (yes I'm fully aware that I sound like an ignorant foreigner, but we're flying around places and don't have too much time to appreciate the history). There was a group of lame British School kids with blue ponchos that I avoided like the plague.
Then we went to this place with hundreds of statue buddahs. they didn't let us take pics of the statues but the outside was fair game. It was magnificent.
Next up was the epic golden palace.
Last up was the This place where they film old samurai flicks.
Ya! I saw the Golden Temple! It was confusing for me getting in though. I can't remember if i even paid to get into that garden or maybe I did pay but had to pay twice. Very confusing!

Ah, so cool!
Also, what the hell is a "Mega Mac"? Do I see four patties on that monstrosity?
What were the hundreds of Buddhas at the temple you visited made from? Bronze? Stone?
@ Char
Only in Japan, because they are skinny enough to eat it.

Please tell me you went into the Shinobiya.
Did you get some kind of crazy ninja weapon?
Come on man! McDonald's when you're in Japan? =P Hahaha! That Golden Palace also looked pretty sweet.
@Last Sky Samurai
Have you gotten your Mario figurines from that Tomopop mustache contest yet?
