A wise man once said, "A picture is worth a thousand words". So here's 65,000 words worth of pictures.

So as seen by my pictures, I basically just walked to the campus today, it was beautiful for walking, and took pictures along the way. I was such a tourist.
I also went to look at the local shops tonight with a few people from my dorm. We stopped at a video rental place and saw they had a large selection of J-Pop, Manga, Hollywood movies, animated movies, Anime, Japanese films, and you can only guess, pornography. As I mentioned before, this country is not shy on porn, and the 4 or 5 filled rows at this videostore did not fight that notion. Sometimes Japan, you make me wonder.
Oh, and I also bought a DSi here, I wanted a black one but they didn't have any and instead of waiting like I very easily could have done, or went to another store, I got a white one instead. I figured out most of the menus, as it's all Japanese, and I have something that will allow me to fully utilize the system and that's all I'm saying about that, haha. But it's real nice and is a nice replacement to my scratched screen and broken L-Button DS Lite. I'll still keep the DS Lite though for games where scratching is probable, seems like the best way to handle it, haha. Oh, and on a side note, I talked to the cashier in Japanese, really the first time I've talked so in depth. I think I managed correctly.
Well, since I'm pushing my 65,000 word limit, I'm going to go to bed.

Great pictures, looks like a wonderful spring day!

Hi, thanks for walking and taking pictures, it is so nice. the flowers especially. so happy that you purchased your ds , what ever that is.. will it work in the states? the weather looks good. we need rain here, in florida, it was in the 50's and 60's in ny. it has been in the high 80's here .we went with friends on a pontoon boat down the lake okeechobee .. we had lunch out in the lake. it was just wonderful. we must of seen 1,000 or more of huge peligans, they feed out there in the lake... beautiful... so school has started? Gram and Papa
So I am behind on the blog...it was so nice to see the places from your point of view. I do love the flowers-wish I were there to smell them all. Also, I thought the places looked deserted-there weren't many cars and there were really no people around when you were taking them-wondering what time of day you took them. I too wondered about why you were bloated-maybe too much sodium in the diet-or are you having any allergy symptoms because of the change of weather/climate/area? Anyway, hope you are feeling ok. As far as the pagoda-it is funny that you say you want one-today I saw one before I saw the blog-it was a fountain for sale-yeah, and little ones also like you said you wanted. If I were a rich man....
Love,
Mom
Sorry I missed the next set of pics! Dad told me to click on your link again. Wow, they are absolutely beautiful! I so wish I were there...and yes, you are a foreigner-remember that! ha! And the Inuyasha Tree-I mean really?! Or is that true?
Love,
Mom
