Yoichi Suita

Komealla aamu-oopperalla pärähti tämä päivä käyntiin, koska onnistuin vahingossa unissani jysäyttämään sängyn päässä olevan radion täysillä päälle. Meinasi tulla aamu sydänkohtaus samaa kyytiä!

Nyt kun ehdin jo valittaa, että ei nähty ketään Tokion frendejä tällä kertaa, niin eilen tuli sitten sähköpostia ystävältämme Marilta, että hän on juuri tullut Australiasta kotiinsa käymään ja voitaisiin nähdä sunnuntaina? Koska meillä nämä junapassit kerran on, niin mik ...

Pääosin matkustuspäivä oli tämä keskiviikko, mutta ehdittiin sentään jotain muutakin.

Ja huhhuijaa! Eilinen kiipeily teki näköjään tehtävänsä ja melkoinen työ oli saada itsensä revittyä sängystä ylös. Lihakset aivan jumissa! :-)

Lähdettiin kuitenkin reporankana laahustamaan hotellilta kello 09 jälkeen kohti Kagoshiman asemaa ja kello 10 kiidettiin jo junassa kohti Osakaa. Ilma oli tänään hiukan sateinen ja sumuinen, joten ei olisi ollut mikään ...

Today we spent the morning to touring around Kyoto before catching our train back to Tokyo. We stopped to visit the Nijo Castle which was originally bulit in 1603 as the official home of the first Tokugawa Shogun. Although it didn't have the beautiful gardens like the temples it was still a very interesting place. It even had a moat like European castles. We then went to see the Kyoto Imperial Palace. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to go ...

... could find, which just so happened to be a teeny tiny family owned restaurant. Our group plus 2 Japanese people took up the entire restaurant. This little dive did have an English menu, but I'm not sure if one could consider it real English. With menu items like "the eggplant that has grilled the chicken with itself" we still weren't exactly sure what we were ordering. As usual, we overcame the language barrier by pointing at things in the kitchen or on the menu that looked ...

... preferisci amare/essere amata). In quel libro (un altro, non il fucile da caccia) un uomo porta la sua sposa molto piu' giovane a Kyoto in viaggio di nozze, e la porta a vedere quel giardino. Dopo la visita, nota che lei diventa sempre piu' silenziosa, e la storia si conclude con lei che lo lascia, scrivendo un biglietto per spiegare che a contemplare il giardino di pietre aveva capito che la storia con lui era solo un'illusione, che in realta' erano troppo ...

... Kyoto which are absolutley beautiful. I forgot the camera cord to let me download pictures but I will try to get one soon. Yesterday(Labor Day) I went running with a group of friends at six in the morning and we ran through the maze of temples(it is similar to a park set up). The entire run was up hill and at one point we stopped to take a break and explore. We found a ...

... has probably been delayed by an hour or so "due to the late arrival of the incoming service", on which the air conditioning and seat reservations computer have almost certainly broken, and whose "restaurant car" selection consists of a soggy microwaved bacon sandwich, coffee whose price suggests it has been imported from St Mark's Square in Venice, and the mother of all insults, Virgin Cola. I can't imagine what Japanese visitors to Britain must ...
