The Japanese collected various buildings from all over Japan built in the Meiji Era and reassembled them in one location, in Inuyama, a city 30 mins north of Nagoya.<\/p>\n<p>I got up kind of late, and got out of the apartment at about 1:00.  Everyone else was a late riser, so I went alone.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/roxy-in-train2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/roxy-in-train2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"roxy in train2\" width=\"484\" height=\"363\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-277\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nIt was educational.

Lol<\/p>\n<p>I mis-read the website&#8230;I thought there were two technique classes back to back, but in fact, I got changed and was walking out the door when I realized that everyone was sparring. >_< I really wanted to spar...but my back was hurting me a lot, and the mats were really hard at Alive.  And I had pulled leg muscle picking up my partner and practicing slams, so it hurt to move, so I decided to go home.  Well...I guess I could have put my training gear back on, but >_< I guess it was a good move, because I'd been walking all day, and I slept A LONG time.\n\nThis morning I woke up at 6, and fell back asleep and woke up at 9.  That never happens.\n\nWhat should I do today, hmmm....\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m trying to make the best of being in Nagoya.
