Nara Day 3: Todai-ji, Cheeky Deer & Fall Foliage

My 2016 Japan travelogue so far:
Osaka Day 1: Ana Crowne Plaza & Sennichimae Doguyasuji
Osaka Day 2: Osaka Station, Kuromon Market & Dotonbori

On this day I woke up even earlier. 6.10am yo!
Breakfast In Osaka

Check out Osaka Day 1: Ana Crowne Plaza & Sennichimae Doguyasuji if you have not.

Enjoying the morning window view while having breakfast. At 11am, we ride the free Ana shuttle bus to Osaka Station.
