Yesterday Was Monday. We, went to Kyoto, wondered around, got lost, but it was nice.

So, at around 9:30 we left the hostel and went to the convenience shop so I could buy some really yummy food. The conveniance shops are actually very conveniant and you can find tons of already made food there. I Love Rice Balls!!! We bought those. Then we managed to get on the ight train and head for Kyoto. I slept most of the time on the train. Wehave been in Kyotot for about 2 days now, and I would have to say that i like Tokyo more. I was really sad to to leave. When we got to Kytot I noticed two things very quickly: the fashion sense had diminished about half and people actaully recognized your existence. In Tokyo you could walk down the street, or do something totally weird and people don`t even pay attention or notice. Here somtimes they say hi, and they actually look at you. So, we fnd our hostel, dropped our stuff off, and wondered around. We found a middle shool, and I actually managed to read in kanji that it was a middle school. We sat outside and said hi to the kids as they headed for home. Then we headed to look for food. We couldn`t seem to find anything, and our feet hurt and I was starving, so after asking a few people and not getting any help, I decided to ask two school girls. That was interesting, not that I should have expected anything less. They were giggle monsters. It was a lot of fun though and they ended up actually taking us to a resturant, that was a little expensive but had really good food.
Since I don`t have much time, and I have to pay to use the internet here, I am going to go on to Today.
Oh ya, A few people said I was cute too. Those girls and some boys.

  2. Um..I don`t think so. Most of the older generation is VERY short, but a lot of the younger people are taller. When I am with a group of school kids around 12 most of them are taller then me. The doorways here are usually really low though! It hasn`t been a problem for me, but I`m sure anyone who isn`t use to it and is above 5.6 or so, might hit their head.
