Morning Shot

Okay, so it is not really morning anymore, it's Saturday!

Here in Nagoya sunrise was at 6:47 a.m. and the temperature is 35°F. I went to bed late or actually early and am a bit tired this morning. Coffee mug #2 is coming up and will no doubt widen my eyes.

Today I am going to a festival with my good friends Doug and Catherine. Will I get a sunny clear day to take pictures? Wow, I sure hope so. When I was in Tokyo last the rain never even let up.

I just have time to crank up Alice & Chains (90's alternative band) and hear about the Rooster one more time. The song is actually called Rooster for those that want to look it up. Nice loud music in the morning is sweet to my ears.

Peace,

Good Morning and Welcome back to my Home on the Web.

The sun in Nagoya rose today at 6:48 and it is currently sunny and 7°

Instead of taking the 7:56 bus #15 I gave myself some extra time and caught the 8:13. With the later bus I only arrive at school four minutes early, which the Japanese basically look upon as being late. With my first class not starting until three hours after my arrival I don’t feel bad.

I am off to find some hot green tea and a snack.

Peace,
^^Zackary

The City

Something within me loves the pulse of a lively city,
preferably a large city.

Chicago is a city of muscle and beauty and music.
And the food ain't bad.

New York is the city that know it has it all and isn't afraid
to brag about it.

Paris is the city that will always be Paris and we will always
have those memories. Or want to.

Tokyo is the city that never truly sleeps because the robots are
awake and the trains stop running at midnight.
You might as
well stay out all night; the neon lights are bright enough
to fuel your dreams. Sleep will come when the sun
comes up and the sleek precision trains
return to whisk
you to reality.
