Saturday - Cloudy and warm
I got up at a reasonable time this morning. I had to if I’m honest! We had a doctor’s appointment. I dressed and we left the house about on time and got to the doctor’s office. While we were there, we were basically made to wait for over an hour. Sigh. Then, we see the doctor for a maximum of five minutes for both of us.
We trundled over to the pharmacy to have our prescriptions filled and then…walked back to the car. I asked for a quick pit stop so we stopped at a grocery store. F got us some drinks and I used the washroom! We swapped after that!
We got on the road to Sakata and I could barely stay awake. Soon enough, F parked in the City Hall parking lot and we walked over to a nearby restaurant. It was a Thai restaurant on the second floor of a building. There were 7 items on the menu and lunch was 1000 yen, so very reasonable. I had Gapao rice and F had chicken and rice. Our meals were nice. Mine wasn’t too spicy, but it was spicy enough that I enjoyed it. I added a bit of sugar and that made it perfect for me.
After lunch we headed back to Tsuruoka but made a stop at the super big Daiso. That was F’s idea! I got a lot of stuff, some of them for my trip. F picked up a few things too.
We went back to the house. I went upstairs and F stayed downstairs to see his mother back. I spent time on my computer. F let me know that he wasn’t feeling great and asked if I still wanted to go and see a movie tonight. I did, but didn’t want to go if F didn’t want to go. He said he’d go.
He made some dinner for K and a little later we headed out. We got to the mall around 7:20 and headed upstairs. Usually I have bibinba at the food court, but tonight I decided to have the same thing as F, yakisoba and okonomiyaki. It was okay. I didn’t really love it, but it was fine.
We went into the cinema when we finished and bought our tickets to see One Battle After Another with Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean Penn. It was a good movie and the last part of it was very suspenseful. I really enjoyed it overall, F didn’t like the gun violence. I didn’t like it either, but it was a movie, so it didn’t offend me!
When the movie was over we drove back to Tsuruoka and F wanted to go to the grocery store. He has to cook for K tomorrow. He’s going to make a nabe for dinner for them both, so I hope they enjoy it!
We were back too late for me to watch my TV show so I just turned to YouTube. I watched a few videos and worked on packing. I have a few things to do in the morning. I’ll have to try and get up a bit early to pack the last few things before I leave.
Today was a pretty good day! Oh, and my friend has decided that she will meet me in Sendai after all. We’ll have lunch together and see how things go. I hope to go early enough to buy some of my necessities before I go over to meet her.
Come back later if you like and hear all about my trip. Until next time….
