Kyoto

This place seems like a small village to me now. I wonder how I will feel back in Enc. The leaves were very pretty, but it was still removed nature. I wasn't really in the forest, you know? It was sort of reassuring, that Tokyo wasn't such a bad choice. Well, except that having a family here, and doing fun things with them, and speaking japanese with them is great. But that is a different issue. I like my place in Tokyo, and while I really don't like the classes, I do like some other things. Judo is fun, for example. I dono. Its hard to say what path would be best, and it really depends a lot on criteria for judging. But, at the very least, I'm happy with living with Soky in Kameido. And I'm looking forward to doing all sorts of site-seeing over my breaks from school.
Today we walked all over arashiyama. It was pretty and I got some good pictures. The soba we had for lunch wasn't as good as I had hoped. I took some good pictures, so be sure to check my flickr. We saw a couple of places that I think I will take Faith. Tomorrow I will probably hang out with Anjee and I think the parents; we may go to tofukuji. Then dinner back home, pasta or nabe or something, I hear. Then Sunday Raul is free, and Monday haruka is free. So, all in all it should be a fun weekend.
