day 7, 8:50pm, tired and smelly

yeah, 33.8km today. i climbed a mountain and saw some beautiful things on my trip. tairyugi, temple21, was the nicest one yet.

but over half of my walk was along the highway. my feet are tired and i smell like a kendo bag (hockeybag).

i'm staying in a zenkonyado (a place givem to ohenro as an act of charity). it is quite a famous one on the walk. it's a converted bus.

i also have a roomate. he's been going around the pilgrimage for a year and two months as penance. he took \3,000,000 ($30,000) from his company and spent it on hostess bars and gambling(pachinko). he was fired, his wife divorced him, and i'm not sure what else.
i hope he finds what he's looking for.

tomorrow, temple 23, it's just down the road, and beyond.

night
