Week 5

Monday 18 Oct

I got my hair done!!! i felt like a total princess. the guy that washed my hair was so gentle that i fell asleep in that chair with the sink ><. they also served us tea. and i had two people applying dye and blow-drying my hair at the same time. they also gave us a small bag with a tube of treatment, coupons and bowed us out of the place till we were out of sight. gosh i love customer service in japan....
and then we went to a cafe nearby and had cake =] yum yum


Wednesday 20 Oct

we went to sweets paradise after school at the Gardens and had all-you-can-eat sweets! but there was a 70min time limit.... =[ my tea.... with a whole heap of different flavoured tea bags

Fri 22 Oct JIDAI MATSURI

jigged Friday arvo class to go to kyoto for the jidai matsuri (festival of the ages), which is apparently one of the three big festivals in kyoto (the others being Gion and Aoi Matsuri). It turned out to be one long quiet parade of volunteers dressed in the garments of the old days.




then we went to heian jingu which was nearby and camwhored a bit there.






kyoto's a really beautiful city. MUST go there again soon! then i was feeling pretty sick so went home
