I know I posted again after yesterday but this time I made it more synthetic hoping for more advice. In particular I am really sore about skipping Kamakura and I am not sure whether the two nights in Osaka are sufficient considering that we will be daytripping a lot on those days and we might as well just be based in Kyoto.
