Memorable First Day

I had a memorable first (full) day yesterday.  I met a new friend and we went to Kamakura and Enoshima. I believe the first place went to was Myohonji temple and then we went to Enoshima Island.  On the way to Enoshima Island we stopped for a meal since we were hungry and have been walking all day.  I was really surprised that my friend was so thoughtful and unselfish she was.  We went to a restaurant to eat and she doesn’t even eat shellfish.  She said she wanted me to enjoy since I’m a visitor.  What a surprise it was.  I’m so lucky to have met a great person. I woke up early again, well super super early at first, but I went back to sleep since I have a run later this afternoon.  I’m currently hanging out at a Starbucks in Shinjuku.  Completed my kanji lesson and was waiting for the JR Travel center to open up at 8 and it’s now 8:41.  I better get going.

Yesterday and today was a great reminder to be greatful for what I have and to count my blessings.  I’ll login later and post a bunch of photos.
