    crispy duck...

    i just hiked up the diamond head crater, its only .8 miles but its up from sea level to 720 feet with around 250 stairs in the trip up.

    a japanese tour group or 2 was there, the kids were so cute. At the top, one little girl gasped 'Tsukaretta!' which means "I'm so tired..!" then "there should be an elevator here." everyone at the summit had a laugh.


    i'm well cooked tho...

    er uh... there's not the same string of colourful euphemisms in japanese like there is in English, you just have to say it with the right inflection.

    like... su-gge na kuruma, or suggoku kakkoi na kuruma, i suppose....

    anyways, i was much too busy at the convention to hang out anyhow. so i wouldn't have been much fun... ;p

    and now i'm just in from Orlando..
