Friday turned out to be a bit of a strange day. Kuniko and I had planned at the last minute to meet up at her place Friday night. The plan was for me to spend the night and then go on to Nara from there on Saturday. At the very last minute she had to cancel, because of some weird stuff going on at her new job. I was pretty bummed out about that, but I’m very adaptable.
Instead of eating out with Kuniko in Osaka I walked down to the yakitori, and watched the Hanshin Tigers game with most of the usual suspects. My Japanese studies have really helped with conversations and vocabulary. I’ve been able to do some better communicating.
The master invited me to join him to watch the softball game on Sunday, so I’m going to meet him at the yakitori Sunday afternoon and we’ll go over and check it out. It should be fun.
After I got back from the yakitori I called Kuniko and said good night, and then crashed out myself. Tomorrow is an early wake up call to go to Nara.
