More decisions
Apr. 16th, 2009 05:53 pmI've discovered a JR East pass can be bought in Japan, which is a very happy thing since I don't really want to pay for Fed Ex shipping and have to wait around for the Fed Ex guy to come. I sort of feel like I have enough to do without that.
I also finally bought a new battery for my laptop, found out more on making Spinzaku street legal and managed to get in a nice walk.
I'm debating my missing two days of reservations. Originally I was thinking of staying in an onsen in Furusawa until I discovered it would take over an hour to get to Tsuruoka from there and the trains only run once every 2 hours o_O;;; So I think it is Sakata for me. Since I think sakura should be way done by then I am also now debating whether I would not prefer to just overnight in Yamagata the 2nd night. The places I found in Tsuruoka itself are smoking and the place in Yonohama, while it has a free bus to Yamagata is also 1 hour by not free bus from Tsuruoka. If I over night in Yamagata I can try to make it to Yonezawa where they are having their Uesugi Kenshin Festival, and possibly make it to an onsen there. I could also maybe go to Yamadera or take a bus trip up to Zao. It just also means I need to be back in Tsuruoka in time to catch a bus. But I don't know how long I am going to spend in Hagure-san.
Yonezawa is on the shink route back to Tokyo vs Zao which is the middle of nowhere. Yamadera is on some tiny barely used train line that eventually goes to Sendai. Decisions!
The other day I went to see the pain doctor with my mom, and at lunch there were crayons at the tables. Since we had two shades of brown and 1 green, I decided I may as well do a tiny bit of sketching. I eventually borrowed a few other colors from other tables.
( cause pictures are large )
I am really liking Sengoku Basara. I love Date and SandaAnd I think I need doujinshi of them >>;;;;
