Traveling is so addictive, sometimes you think you've had enough. In the end you always want more.

I really wish I could read what this page says!

Alex told me to title my pages but I can hardly tell if Im posting this or not! Anyway, we are in our super-nice hostel in Tokyo about ready for bed. We have to wake up at 6 am to catch our flight to bangkok.

We had a great time in Kyoto, saw so many beautiful temples and shines. This one called Kinkaka-gi had this amazing zen garden like out of a painting. We explored Gion and saw a bunch of geisha...we even spyed on a geisha party in a restaurant from the street. It was really amazing. They are so mystical, youll be keeping an eye out for them and suddenly one will walk right past you and you totally miss it. It really is like theyre floating. We realized once we got to tokyo how different kyoto is from here, friendlier, more tasteful, more romantic. Tokyo really is just like new york, only less diverse. We werent super into it but we did stuff ourselves with some great conveyer belt sushi tonight for like $5. Its crazy, we are staying in the historic district called asakusa with an amazing temple and 5 story pagoda. But its completely overshadowed by tourist shops and a weird amusement park surrounding it. Its so strange. anyway, i would like to write more but my minutes are running out. more from bangkok!
