Well, the first week has gone pretty quick. I've spoken more Japanese in the last couple of days than I have in the last couple of years! It's been really fun. I thought that I would share with you some things that I have learnt about myself since arriving in Japan.
1. I am hopeless at reading maps. I always thought it was the Gregory's directory, but no... it's me. I have ...
... s horrible. Think Maccona, Nescafe, Arriva. That's what I'm dealing with here people. Even coffee houses serve up the same filter-brewed mess. Nightmare on Cafe Street. You can ride the most efficient public transport system, buy the world's most advanced technology, **** in a loo that sings to you, but not buy a good cup of coffee. Anyway, never again.
After breakfast, I did a bit of shopping, had a wander ...
... I gave up & had my lunch by a fountain back in front of the Noh theatre.
Whilst eating and resting my very, very weary legs, I consolled myself with the good pictures of the castle I took from the pedestrian overpass. I've seen several castles now in Japan, so I doubt that this one would have been any different had I bothered to get closer.
Dinner last night was Kakiten soba - which is fried oysters on ...

... with a man from Kagoshima that was relating the very same thought. Here he'd shelled out for the surprisingly costly airfare to what he assumed was just another city in Asia, only to be completely befuddled by how un-Asian it was. Sleek, modern, clean, efficient Japan is worlds apart from grubby, gruff, bumpy Russia. Vladivostok's airport is certainly among the strangest I've been in. Despite its growing reputation as Russian hub for Asia, it feels like a forgotten, socialist ...
Kariya, Japan xerius... to that, I had to frantically try and get as much done this morning and afternoon before I had to catch a train to Nagoya and do a soundcheck. Then, as soon as it was over, it was back to Kariya to pack my backpack full of gear. So, I've cancelled my cell phone, updated my address book with as many e-mail addresses and phone numbers as I could think of, purchased a couple more memory cards to get me through the ...
Kariya, Japan xerius... running necessary errands around town and we'll likely have to do the same again some tomorrow. Then hopefully on Wednesday or Thursday we'll head over to Kyoto for a couple days and take in the festive sakura season in the old capital. And, if time allows, I may jump into Nagoya for a peek around the castle one more time. So far it looks like the weather should be good - knock on wood. Other than that, it's just a matter of time now until we're off to Europe!
