day 2

I know that day one and day two arent exactly very catchy headings, but hey, im tired, and its early

the day began around 10/11am ish, we all met, except for Xavier, he caught an early bus to go see some friends,
some of us had eaten breakfast, well, remi and nick had, on the way to the subway we stopped and a place called bakery kiosk, jo and shared some pastries, one had ham in the center, the other tuna, very tasty i think ill be going there for breakfast tomorrow as well!!

then we went down into the Nagoya Subway and took the Saku-dori to the the Meijo Line and then got off at Nagoya Castle

Nagoya Castle and Tower

After exploring the grounds, a tower and the caste itself we headed out to find some lunch, but first we got some takoyaki, which are thin dough sacs filled with octopus bits, they were hot, but they were prety tasty

anyway, since it was sunday we wandered around for too long only to realize that most palce weren't open, most places were only open for dinner hours. we eventually went to a curry place, i ordered a spinach in curry, very tasty, then it was off to visit shrines,
a shrine

i think we succeeded in finding three, although we never found the one we were looking for.

we were all getting tired of walking around and i think the jet lag is settling a bit, we headed back to the hotel and are now waiting till we head out for dinner, im going toformat some pictures and upload them
