Going from Tokyo to Kyoto feels like traveling back in time. I ended up in the city’s historic district surrounded by over 1000 buddhist and shinto temples, incredible parks and one of the biggest bicycle cities in the world.
The old Japanese capital will grab you as you enter and not let you go as you stroll streets and some temples built 1200 years ago!
The morning WOD was at CrossFit Chikara (thanks Michael for the rowing tips) and then the bullet train flew me down to tropical Kyoto (over 105F today).
