Home Coming in Kyoto 3/5

Michi made Miso soup for breakfast. I had two bowls with rice, salad. What a relaxing morning to start the day. Michi and I talked for three hours straight in Japanese and English before Michi took me to Yukaki's house in her newly bought red car.

Home Coming in Kyoto 1/5

Day One Oct 24 Friday

I took it easy to get on 14:40 Bus 1968 from the Da Ping Ling Stataion. I didn’t leave home until 14:30, as soon as I arrived at Da Ping Ling Station, I didn’t wait for long before I saw Bus 1968 coming. I picked up at the front row, so that I had a pananoric view to enjoy the streets scenes all to way to the airport.   

Strangely I couldn’t find my flight on the outbound information board, I only saw a Peach flight to Kansai at Counter 12. I asked two ladies waiting in the line in Japanese about my flight, they told me to ask the tour guide. Fortunately the young lady tour guide checked my flight number on her phone, and told me Jetstar was at Counter 7.

I was early to arrive at the departure gate, because I didn’t spend much time shopping at the airport, except the souvenirs for my Japanese ladies friends in Kyoto. I didn’t realize that I stood at the wrong line of Taiwan Tiger till the last minute. The Jetstar line was just next to the Taiwan Tiger, I became the first person to wait in line, followed by two phillipinos. We talked for at least half an hour to exchange travelling information. They both live in Canada and enjoy traveling around the world when they are free. They are in Taiwan for the delicious Taiwanese food.

The Eve of Moon Festival (20/30)

To my surprise, my brother in law took my birthday party refreshments back to LA yesterday afternoon.

I saw Brother Jimmy at 8 o'clock this evening at his place. And I saw three bottles of red wine on the table.
