So I asked my host mom to help me out, just a little bit if she could
with my route since I hadn't done it before, and I saw the big map in front of me and I could see how to get there but I wanted to
know the best route. So, she helped me out by scribbling a bunch of directions down
that I can read but, unfortunately I know I need to get on the Hanzomon line.
I just don't know which direction I need to go.
I'm thinking this way.
I'm thinking that way. What's my stop?
It's 3 stops away... It's A... YA... I can't read that kanji.
I'm pretty sure it's... Is it this one? Aoyama?
So, I guess I need gotta take three.
I guess...
After that I gotta get off and take another line. I think it's the Toei-Oedo line? That takes another 7 stops...
Then I get off. Cool? I'll make my way there...
Then there is a twenty-five minute walk, if I can't find the specific bus that takes me to the concert.
I can't really remember too well, the directions I need to take care of. I need to pass two stop lights, and then I'll take a right...
Then, when I get to another stop light I take a left... Yeah, then I go down to the end of that street and take a right...
That's my guess, but of course I'll probably be wrong. I do have to at least hope that these directions will take me the right way.
I'm liking the little furigana next to them, it's pretty nice. Alright, I'll talk to you guys later.
Wonderful! So, I'm riding into the depths of hell... *** long *** escalator.
So, I'm a little concerned... I know I need the Oedo line, but I thought it was the Toei-Oedo, and I don't see not Toei-Oedo, so...
Oops... What also concerns me is the color, because I was also kind of going by the color of the lines, that I was passing by.
On the map, it's sort of a purplish color. The color that this has is like this 'pinku' color.
Which is a little weird...
So, I'm guessing that the pink is the big long circle? That's cool. I was honestly- oh, well, maybe not?
If you go by the colors here... it has to be this one, which is the one I'm going to get on. There is no closer purple.
The only other closer purple is Hanzomon, which I was already on.
Alright, I'm going to get on. I'm going to look for the little map, and make sure I'm going the right direction, and then I'm going
to get on. What a *** process. You know, if I just went with the flow of things, and stopped double checking everything
this really wouldn't be so much of a problem. Jesus, what another escalator? What the ***?
The line is actually like... This is only about thirty percent of it. There is another sixty percent of it around the corner that we're waiting for.
I'm probably going to be here for at least another hour.
