7/17/10- My crocks destroyed my feet.

This morning felt so nice because I slept from 11:30pm to 10:30am! The only thing that ruined my morning was that I may have peed a little in my pants while I was sleeping, so I had to change my boxers. Too graphic? I'm sorry to the 12 people reading my blog.

Today was such a beautiful, yet hot day. Our team was split up for the whole day because some people went to watch the Gion parade, and some people went to Arashiyama/Shijo. The people who went to Gion had to wake up super early, but from what I heard they had a good time. I went to Arashiyama and Shijo in my crocks. For those of you who don't know what crocks are, they're the unstylish slip-ons that everyone makes fun of, except in Japan because Japanese people have a weird sense of style (for the record, I didn't buy them, a person from my team bought them for me). I thought my crocks were going to be comfortable without socks. WRONG. I now have two blisters that cause insurmountable pain whenever I'm wearing those crocks. Anyways, Arashiyama was gorgeous, but since it had been raining this past week, the river, which is normally clear, was brown and looked like milk tea. We went to this good ramen place and had lunch there. After lunch, we explored some stores for about an hour, then headed to Shijo to explore some more shops. I need to stop being a fatty and buying so much food. Although the weather was SUPER hot during the day, the night was so pleasant.

I completely forgot to mention this to everyone, but I wanted to thank each and every person reading my blog for their support and prayers. I appreciate it so much! I would buy you all a little something from Kyoto, but like I said before, I'm a fatty that can't control his urges to buy food.
