Honestly not a lot to report for today. We slept in (which was necessary), checked out of our hostel and got breakfast before heading to a temple known for its Golden Pavilion. It was cool, but as far as entertainment purposes pertaining to this blog go, the best we could do with this one is the occasional "i'd like to take a golden shower in the Golden Pavilion" or "sit on the golden throne in the Golden Pavilion" joke. Lyall did almost shit his pants...and when he finally found the toilet he discovered no toilet paper, ah to be green in Japan. Japanese bathrooms have no towels in them because the entire county is hell bent on being green, which is admirable, but I think Japan can spare the extra CO2 and give everyone the pleasure of having a clean ass. Dirty buttholes and poor dental hygiene are a miserable combination.
Anyways after the temple we wanted to visit a monkey park but didn't have enough time. If you read my earlier post about the ninja monkey you would understand why I was a huge advocate for the monkey park, the entire park is filled with free, wild ninja monkeys. However, it was not meant to be and I had to settle for taking the bullet train back to Tokyo. I didn't sleep this time. I probably should have though, I don't know if I will recover from the humiliation after being forced to use my laptop as an mp3 player for the ride home. This is like the modern equivalent of carrying a boom box on your shoulder. Life post iPhone is archaic depressing.
