Lazy day by the sea. Some good ol’ home cookin, followed with some good ol’ lighthouse explorin’.
The complete polar opposite of Tokyo. Hatching grounds for spontaneous road-trip 2010. 5 people + 5 backpacks in the worlds tiniest car. Aka super fun.
First stop? Kobe. One of Japan’s more attractive cities, as it’s perched on hills overlooking the sea. A total port town, there are lingering traces of both Chinese and European influences--- in both the food and architecture. We explored Kobe slowly and carefully—constantly lost, yet unworried about our whereabouts…
Chinatown by day, although we eventually wound up back here later for some cheap dinner. So cheap, that it came as no surprise when--- sans meal, a giant rat ran through the plastic coated dining room. Oops.
I LOVE magicians. There. I said it.
Ah yes, and later that night—to celebrate Claudine’s departure for Thailand, KARAOKE. I am proud to announce that thanks to this night—I will now be pursuing a future as ‘Pop Star,’ as I have the best voice ever, and some sweet sweet moves to accompany it. Karoke in Japan goes as such: pay $15-$20 for 2 or 3 hours of ALL you can drink, ALL you can sing rock-out time. You and your pals get your own room, which---- after 4 gin and tonics begins to resemble your own FUCKING STAGE. I would post a video of my singing…but I’m too good. I don’t want to run into copyright issues once my career takes off.
You’re going down Miley Cyrus.
Bitch.
