Yay! We've bought our plane tickets to Athens!
We are getting closer and closer to our Europe trip! It was fun choosing our seats on the plane, and also because Michael is Pescatarian (haha. Vegetarian and fish eater), we looked at the different types of food you can pre-order for our flights. There's all sorts! Vegetarian-Indian, Vegetarian-Chinese, Halal, Seafood-meals, diet-meals... I even found one called the 'soft and bland' meal! eww. poor person who has to eat that.
Well, this past weekend wasn't so exciting to write about, but here goes...
We went to an Ikebana (flower arrangement) display in Kyoto Museum, because a work-collegue of Michael's was displaying her flower arrangement, and had invited us. It was very pretty and creative and all that, but I don't really know much about flower arranging so I find it hard to be very enthused...
Afterwards, we had a nice time walking around parts of Kyoto we haven't walked before (i.e. we got lost), but eventually found our way. It was quite pleasant being 'lost' actually cos we weren't in a hurry, and there were a few cute shops along the way. We ended up at Kyoto Station, and bought cheese, wine, pesto, and olives from the foreign food store. Michael had been craving European food as he'd just finished reading a book that described all the different foods there.
Wedding Update: We have decided on the wording for the wedding invitations, and also created a unique design to put on the invitation cards. Michael also created an elegant design to be embroidered on my winter wedding coat. Oh, and we decided on the yummy cake too.
Lots of things to 'decide' eh?!
Personal Update:
Still doing Yoga 2x a week with Ashley! (ok, sometimes we cancel, but we have good intentions...)
Now I'm having dinner every Thursday with 2 old ladies, (my tea ceremony teacher and her neighbour), because they want to have 'English Conversation'. Surprisingly, we don't run out of things to talk about! My tea ceremony teacher is a skilled conversationalist!
Now is the end of the school year, so I have no classes to teach until mid-April! So I am paid to read books, drink tea, and surf the net. Lucky me.
