Diary	The breakfast was great!! At AM 8:30 the last start! Untill border of Wakayama and Nara, it continued very gentle climbing. A house wife was riding mama-chari bicycle. The skyline became gentle. I felt I was clese to urban place. At PM 2:30 I reached Nara. I was convinced I could reach Kyoto, and bought a train ticket from Kyoto to Shin-Yokohama. After big noodle lunch I began to run again. From Nara to Kyoto is very flat. I ran, ran, just ran. At PM 6:00 in the sunset, I reach the goal of this touring, "Sanju-Sangendo" temple. I got it!
