Mari then struck upon the idea of getting to tonight's hotel room, switching into our swimwear, and avoiding the worst of the heat of the day at a national swimming center on the outskirts of town. This worked fantastically - we emerged well-refreshed in the evening - until we fell victim to the damage wrought by the recent typhoon - the return train we were counting on was one of those canceled due to damage somewhere in the system. They're running on limited trains per day it seems. A small price to pay for such a fine day.
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
