a few photos

I have tons of photos which i will find a way to show very soon. but for now here are 3.

This is the bathroom in Mokpo were Rebecca and I stayed. notice the sink hanging over the toilet and the tub.


This is the hotel room with what i think were very thick comforters on the floor.


I think this is a holy caterpillar who lives in the mountain with a temple that i will remember the name of soon...


soon i'm going to edit my sentences

I'll write again with pictures

I'm now in Deagu- there are two spellings but I think this is ok. I'm working on saying hello, thank you , sorry and good byes in Korean so i can travel to Seoul alone perhaps tomorrow or the next day...

I went to Mokpo (I think it's how it's spelled) with Rebecca for a few days. We climbed a mountain and were kicked out of a woman's "home". The sign did say it was a restaurant. We also got lost in the ghetto and slept on the floor in a hotel.

Back in Tokyo (saturday) I had a very long day of being lost in Harajuku and Shibuya. But i saw a temple and a wedding I think. Also there was a big festival happening, but I have to look up the name. I was 30 minutes late to Sampei's show as i predicted although I was in the neighborhood for 2 hours. It was pretty awesome though. I want to take up my saxophone again. I miss jazz. No one danced though. if none of this makes sense. I will try again later. An-nyong-ee keseyo

In Tokyo

I made. The flight sucked.

My hostel is on a street with no name. actually all the streets in this Asakusa area have no names. on the map they make those areas green. I was looking for a park.I told the girl at the hostel desk i would be happy to name them if they are looking for that.

So now i'm off to eat things and take pictures before the concert tonight. oh and get lost of course oh the subway.

concert thingy

I should be packing for the trip but i'm too tired to make good decisions. Here's what i was playing with for a few days. It's supposed to be mine and Emily's view of the T and S concert. I used the pictures I took and tied to build a panoramic view...sort of. anyway I ended up just painting over it all. if i think about it i might put up the process photo collage. it maynot be worth it. ok i'm tired and not making sense.

slideshow

I'm going on vacation this upcoming week and hope that I will have interesting things to say about it and post good pictures from it. Before that happens would like to show some bad quality pics and perhaps sentence-stories so that slate will be clean for more things later...? My camera phone likes to add white bars to top and bottom. I'm too lazy to crop them now.



This is were I sat in the Met when Cynthea and I saw the Barber Of Seville

The sealing made me think of the inside of a chocolate box


We ate at Rosa Mexicana. I thought this was a wall of upside down crosses until I realized it was positions of a diver in motion. This I tried testing it with my figures around my eye.

This is my beautiful light weight bike which I carry up and down 5 flights of stairs. A few weeks ago I slipped on the mopped staircase carrying my bike and it ended on top of me. It hurt a lot. I'm feeling better with drugs.

I don't think I posted this pic...but this is the day I walked to the train and realized my shoe had a hole.

I can't see the post-its now but I believe it says "STILL WORKS"

A lot of people seem to not need their canes. I really want to see one thrown aside in real live...
I know I showed this before, but I wanted to prove my point. It also took 20 minutes to find it. So it became a small pointless mission...

My new favorite place in central park


Abominable Snowman reflection. Ok I need some new t-shirts.

Ok, this is not my idea but I was so inspired by Tricia that I took these...for you..Tricia..
