random walkings

tis not quite the wild blue, rather, its the so-called cultural
capital of japan… and i suppose they probably ‘have the same shit
they got here, it’s just a little different.’ But any way it goes, it
should bring me back with some good stories and maybe a couple
pictures… there is a 20 hour ferry ride up the sea of japan, from
tsuruga in kansai to tomakoma on hokkaido! Leaves at midnight on the
8th, gets there about 8:30pm on the 9th!

and from thence to Sapporo, land of yuki-matsuri (for those of you
who’ve seen the animatrix, think of what color that cat named yuki
was… white… it means snow!! crazy!!) and matsuri = (in my book
anyways) crazy big traditional japanese festival, kinda like san
fermin without the bulls! and a hotel found via gaurav’s mom, the
travel agent extraordinaire!

after that, potentially returning to the relative normalcy of
kawasaki, kamakura, and tachikawa (?) or potentially reading and
re-reading the wwoof japan booklet, to find a traditional japanese cow
farm to muck stalls and shovel snow (?) or potentially who knows what.
