We had to go to Yokohama because accomodation was full on one of the weekends. So we dragged our big butts and XL luggages to the station (without escalators) and left it in the lockers.

So while in Yokohama, we went to Kamakura because of some popular Buddha statue. We went to Kamakura and....

got a map and started walking for approx 3kms instead of taking a tram or a bus. good exercise and you can stop by at any interesting places anytime.

We didn't wanna pay 200yen just to get closer to a statue so this is all we could see... 




the following illustration depicts how we stalked the Buddha.

This was a hot day and we decided that we should take a tram back to the station. Packed with tourists and no air conditioning, we struggled our way back to Kamakura station. I sat down at the station, eating ice cream and suddenly the bag beside me started wriggling around and out came a dog's nose, sniffing my food.... hehehe

Came back to Yokohama and we walked around the harbor at night, without paying a single yen for any of the rides there, and also the street performer.
