Saturday in Kyoto

So the day was pretty much rain and then it stopped. Bernie and I discussed that we were in for a chill day of shopping and cruising around the city. We had coffees and found cute little shops. I was in a shop and told myself I didn't need this skirt. So I left it and told myself to at least wait over night and we can find it tomorrow. We then met up with Nicole and Harrison and walked through Gion looking for geisheas. We found some and Harrison wasn't impressed as we were. Then we went for some yakiniku (grill your own meat and veggies on a little gas grill in the table). This was the first time that Harrison and Nicole had it. The wait for our table was over an hour (there were open tables the whole time- how do I know this- they were empty when we used their toilets while waiting). So I wanted a large water- Yes a huge I mean huge mug of water. Not the dixie cups I usually get and they have to refill them every gulp. Harrison ordered a coke and the mug was about the same size as his head. Another lovely dinner. We topped the night off to the Africa bar. Don't ever go there. The atmosphere delightful, the staff way under par. So as we were leaving a glass got knocked over and the whole waitstaff came to roll their eyes at us. That was the last time I will go there. We stayed out for more drinks at the A Bar. That was crazy because some random Japanese guys wanted to improve their English. We asked how they were and we got the 'I'm fine and you?' NO NO NO. So we told them how to use excellent, fantastic, and great. Oh and also bad, and shitty. They didn't know the word shit, so we explained it meaning poo. So after that lesson was over we worked on not adding vowels to the ends of words. andu, lefto, righto. NO NO NO. They aced that test, too. So the guy sitting next to me got up and said "Excuse me I have to poo". I cracked up and almost peed myself there. He did use the word right and I give him props for that. At that note, we were out of there.
More pictures when I get home.
