Kobe Style

Day 118: Wednesday, July 06, 2011

Yosuke and I took the night bus to Kobe. Our friend Iikawa, who lives on an island off the main part of the city, greeted us when we arrived at his local station in his pajamas riding a little red bicycle. While we walked to his house under the sun, he explained:

“Sorry, I don’t have AC, but if you move and talk slowly, it won’t be so hot.”

A few seconds later, he also added:

“And when you use the bathroom, you must sit down to pee."
