okay, so i haven't written in a long time, but forgive me. we have been very busy. just yesterday we went to the clean water temple, which was on top of a big hill. a very big hill. a mountain that was really steep and long and hot, but it was totally worth it. we got to drink the special god water, and i filled a water bottle with it. it was heavenly. :)
Then we all did the love stones. you walk from one stone to the other with your eyes closed, and if you succeed, you will find true love. some of us found the stone, but some of us didn't. sad. after the temple, we shopped our way down the mountain. we went and dropped our bags at our hotel, and went out for a night in Kyoto.
I went with the girls for a night of karaoke. it was a bit confusing at first, but it was really fun once we got the hang of it. they have a tonload of songs in english, so we had lots of fun. i'll write to ya later! gotta catch the shinkansen!
