I got up late with a hangover. I had a fugu party with my network friends last night. Though fugu (balloon fish) is kind of poisonous in some parts of it's bowel, it is so delicious when cooked properly.
I was off today. I went out for a long walk with my dog "Mocha". I live near my Alma Mater now but I don't know this area so much because I have been away for 15 years. Besides I usually use a car or a motorcycle when I go out. To my surprise I found a small shrine honoring a feudal lord. There is a hill near my house. They say there was a castle on top of the hill about 400 years ago and the lord and his son were killed through disembowelment. The history of the area was written on a brass plate. I wondered what scenery those people had been seeing. No buildings, no elevated roads, no trains, no planes,,,.
