Kyoto

Kyoto is a VERY old city. It was the ancient capitol of Japan. So naturaly, it is a very historic city. So many temples, shrines, and other neat monuments. I saw way too many there! Basically all we did was visit shrines and temples the whole time we were there ^_^. After a while, it began to get a bit annoying.

But the most interesting thing that happend while I was there was how I got lost... I got split up with a buddy in the arcade, and had to make it back to the youth hostel by myself. Very scarry. So I took the bus we'd been takign all day to visit shrines and temples. Bus #12. But later, I found out, it was the wrong bus I needed to take! So I went the whole route and winded up at some temple way north in the city. I took bus 12 back downtown, and got of at some wrong stop. So I asked this Japanese guy for help, and he didn't know any english! He wa so nice though! He took me down to the subway and I found myself back ^_^. I didn't wanna go to the subway though. I wish I'd done more than say thank you a lot and bow.






As for today... A friend came over, and I was tired. So I fell asleep right after he left. Bad idea. I slept for about 3 hours, so I'll probably be waking up at 5 am today. Also my pictures came. The picture I wanted most was not there though. It was the one with the Japanese boys I fell in love with. It was my last pik I took and they were real cute in their tuxes.AUGH. I'm also still staying away from ramble land. I don't know why. I'm just real pissed and tired today >_<.

But if he didn't know English, how'd you get him to take you to the subway? 0_o I would be really scared if that'd been me. I'm glad you made it back all right!!

I'd be tired too, if I'd taken such an exhausting trip... hope you feel better soon!!

I never realized we could use little icons...

Anyway, a subway station was where I got off the bus. The guy just took me down there. I got very lucky ^_^.

Yikes. It must have been frightening to get lost in such a huge city. Sometimes I get lost in the passing periods at my High School. My High School is most likely as small as they come, too.

I'll bet you have a great sense of direction.
