japan week two

Well two weeks ago i was doing laps in a pool and training 2 times a day and today i was in Kyoto walking around castles where samurai once roamed,this is turning out to be a journey indeed! My next stop will be a Kobe steakhouse for some Kobe beef which is a must do especially being from Vancouver and having been at a restaurant called Kobe steakhouse which doesn`t compare obviously. Just a few thoughts while I`m on the computer sitting on the floor here in Osaka,great food, Beer vending machines,heated toilet seats,fantastic transportation system and finally beer vending machines! Man could i use a chair about now,lol anyway i`m going stand up bang my head and head out with pocket full of yen and ironman dreams still very much alive. Thanks to all for the well wishes.
