Kyoto - day 2
Things went well today. I was able to read maps, determine north from the location of the sun and there was no snowing or precipitating. Even better, I am now sitting in a net-cafe listening to Koop play softly on the overhead speakers. I am almost totally relaxed. Just a little knot where my backpack sits on my shoulders.
I got a later-then expected start today at 9ish. But I found my way to a couple of cool temples and some highly overrated monkies. I was also at the awesomest Zen temple because they just let me wander around the place. Most temples are all roped off and force you to walk how they want you to walk. Boooring. This one? This one rocked the house. Its name: Kennin-ji. With a subtitle of 'This shit is awesome.'
There will be picutres one day, I swear. But that day is probably saturday when I am in Osaka. The only other places I have found for intertroning in Kyoto are a kinko's which costs waaay too much and a campus center which also doesn't have usb ports. Tomorrow is Nara with the super-friendly dear and the biggest Buddha in the land. Then partying in Osaka! Wait, I mean, more culturally significant traipsing about and being in bed by 10.
No boozy plans over here.
