Not so wow

Quicky: when I went out again this afternoon, I very optimistically put on my shorts. It’s been rather cold. :-/ No sunshine anymore. ¬.¬

In here

Quicky: I’m learning Japanese. This means entrance:

And this means exit:

Can you spot the character (kanji) for “gate” (or passage)?

Animals

Quicky: during my trip, I have occasionally stumbled upon neko (cats). Not any seemed to be interested in receiving attention from me. Just now, I met the first. Cute neko!

Not 10 seconds later I saw a skunk fleeing from sight.

Nice kōen (park), over here at Nagoya jō (castle). *g

Wow, just wow!

Quicky: today is a very lovely day with nice and sunny weather. This made the Shinkansen trip from Kyoto to Nagoya very memorable. And I have pictures to prove it. (yes, they too will follow)

Sad busses are not sad!

Quicky: I took the basu (bus) to Kyoto eki (station) this morning. Kyoto eki was the terminal for that particular line. When arriving at Kyoto eki, a very very sad organ music was played in the basu. Yes, the basu was also very sad to see me leave.

Chairs

Quicky: something funky I noticed, after I got to Kyoto by a limited express train.. After getting off, the seats where switched/reversed. That is, the upright part (where you rest your back into), switches position so that one can now sit in the seat, facing the other direction.

Not really sure why that is..

Windows

Quicky: no, not the operating system. I’m talking about having a window seat for the duration of the entire ride from Kyoto to Nagoya. Booyah!

Rainy Sunday afternoon

Sunday 2nd November

I already mentioned it: there be raaaains here in Kyoto. At least this morning so much so that I decided to stay in and read my non-galactic travel guide on the subject of Nagoya. Preparations about my next stay, I makes them.

*pok*

Quicky: it’s official, this country is too small for me. Or rather, I’m too big for this country. Or for certain rooms anyways…
