Afterwards I bummed around the house during the day and then went into Kobe to meet Kuniko after her work ended.  I took the opportunity to do a little bit of shopping at the import food store, as well as a drop-in at the bookstore to look for some practice exams for the upcoming Japanese test.<\/p>\n<p>Kuniko had taken a bunch of leftover food that nobody wanted at her school &#8211; some sandwiches, and a giant bag of yakisoba.  I threw them in my backpack, and from there we went to catch dinner at Wendy\u2019s.  There are a couple of Wendy\u2019s in Kobe, and I haven\u2019t eaten there in years, so it was fun to go check it out.  They have chili there &#8211; I had totally forgotten about chili cheese fries.  Kuniko bought me dinner and I had a work down the gastronomical version of memory lane.<\/p>\n<p>Finally we headed over to the wedding place, and made lots of important, and expensive decisions.  It took a long time before we were out of there &#8211; several hours of sitting in the same place.  I\u2019m really looking forward to not going back there after the wedding is over.<\/p>\n<p>By the time we left there we were hungry all over again, so we ate the hijacked sandwiches while we walked back.  It is a little rude in Japan to eat and walk, but we were both hungry so we did it anyway.  They hit the spot.<\/p>\n<p>We got back to Futami exhausted, and crashed right into bed.  This week is going to be a monster week of classes and preparations.  I\u2019ve got a tough schedule at school, and home is looking busy, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday Kuniko went off to work early, and I managed to squeeze in a few hours of extra sleep.
