the 9th day of adventure
the 29th od december....woke up and went back to "swallow" the buffet with megan and margaret and new friend tien fong. we had breakfast and relaxed a while before deciding to go to the costume museum. so off we went...to find it closed... but on the way we saw a reaaly awesome looking garden behind this glass wall that had water rippling down it. and we saw an old man with his pomeranian ...the little thing was so tired it wouldn't walk and so he carried it and hobbled away...they both looked reeally old...it was kind of endearing to say the least. so after no costume museum we found a very big temple.
i took video recording....though no pictures were allowed...sneaky like a ninja....after the time there we made plans...but i got left behind a lot... megan is somewhat impatient so she kept leaving without me but margaret and tien fong were really nice and waited for slow me.
off we went to kyoto palace....we arrived and! it was closed.... so we took some pictures from under the fence and went walking around the park. margaret had bought a small frog statue and put it all over the place and took it's picture. we did lots of stuff. saw a tea garden, jumped over the small river. we rested under some big tree and got into a massive leaf fight.... well it was just margaret and me >.> yay acting your age.
while they were resting i ran into alex and his friend, they were biking around the castle grounds and alex gave me his card so i could facebook find him ^-^ then off we went some more. until finally i convinced everyone i needed to go to the playground...swings <3 buuuut the metal seats were none too comfy. so instead we opted for see saw....which attacked my swollen knees. but it was fun and this little boy kept toddling over...so we asked his parents if he could play with us...and we all see sawed together hahaha it was cute. ^-^
then we went to another shrine....where i saw a serena sized shishi <3
i
love
shishi
so i hugged it and margaret took a picture for me....then after looking around the temple some i decided just hugging it wasn't enough...so i climbed on it and tien fong took a picture for me ^-^ i want a shishi to ride around XD hahaha
after that tien fong was off to do more things and i was off to osaka. which apparently so were megan and margaret.
so we all went together to osaka. and found dinner at outback steakhouse....yes...i miss it. i had the usual alice springs chicken and endless honey bread and bloomin onion XD. i sepnt most of the time ogling the tall lanky waiter...until i almsot ran into him....then i felt really embarassed >,< so as we were eating i had begun to get full.... 3 loaves of honey bread do that... margaret and megan surmised they didn't have to go boxes....so i ate everything...
then i asked if we could get dessert....margaret laughed and said i wouldn't have room...so i cried... and then she said dessert was fine. it was actually really funny... we all shared a brownie choco sundae ^-^
then we went off to find our hotels. i was at hotel new chuo and they were a few stops away. i got to my hotel after getting lost .....my sense of direction is soooooo bad. >,<
went on the internet ended up staying up till 3 am uploading pictures....>,< and then went to sleep. it was a nice hotel.
