Greetings from the motherland

Where we went incognito as German tourists just in case we got caught doing anything we weren't supposed to.


Although you can't see it here, she was wearing black socks with sandals. (Photo concept not my own but this is playing to a minuscule/nonexistent audience so don't no one care.)

We went to the Hollyhock House on Sunday and in addition to lovely and crumbly architecture, there was a chud with a sansetsukon practicing his moves. I have pictures of nothing, NOTHING!! None of the inside of the Hollyhock House but I hope to on a later visit. I will not be denied.

Ha! I forgot! You sent me it already on account of my pathetic pleading. And terrible English.


For my birfday present to myself, I bought and installed my own DSL, so there. Doing so required cutting into the base of a very large and heavy cabinet and the resulting scars on my hand spell out " ソ フ ハ ニ " which doesn't mean anything unless it's talking about a foreign grandfather? I don't know. Maybe the cabinet was angry at having to be cut into and this was its vengeance and, being a German shrunk, used an Axis language. I might be reading too much into it.
