Decline
From Gifu to Yokohama on the Shinkansen
Physical Health Status: Deteriorating fast
Mental Health Status: I want to put every snotty Japanese person who has made me sick to the sword!
Belt Status: Tighter than it should be - physical exercise makes ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE to how fat you are. NONE.
Foot Status: Still awesome, praise be to the lords of shoe making, Altra.
I am on the decline. I thought I would get better, I didnt, I got worse.
This will be reflected by a lack of photos.
I had many plans of places to go, at this stage, these will be impacted.
If I dont make a rapid improvement I might have to go to the forest.
As I type this an alarm went off in my room for half a second, twice, with a minute or so in between. I did not feel an earthquake though. Maybe North Korea is here.
Update, alarm went for longer with someone talking over it, I went down stairs, and they all bowed and said 'no prob-elem, pleasu ignore...des!' ok.
I got up early and walked around Gifu. This open sewer was quite picturesque in the early sun.
The reflection of the leaves on the water and the leaves on the water on the roof of the tunnel of the bridge was quite interesting.
On all the previous occasions I went past Fuji on the Shinkanesen, it was raining. Today I could see it, so I took this poor quality photo.
As my camera has no zoom, its a crop, through pollution, from a moving bullet train.
I have seen other tourists have a tantrum and start crying when they realised they wouldnt get their photo of fuji from the train.
And last photo for today, my hotel room. Daiwa Roynet again, exact same config as my last Daiwa Roynet in Gifu with a slightly more modern decor.
I like it, its large.
