Konpira San

After a few days of solitary work, I needed to get out. Takahashi San was driving out of town and dropped me and a co-worker off. I misunderstood that he was coming with us. He went straight home after dropping us off. I didn't bring any money at all. It took me roughly eight hours to walk home.

The temple I was to see was on top of a mountain. Luckely there were big concrete steps to walk up, 1368 of them. I decided to climb them alone. I tend to deal with things better that way.

The path is lined with carved stone monuments of all the people that donated their earnings, time and effort to bring this place into existance.
