Last free day

Today is the last full day in Japan and the day started off with me getting some good rest. I didn’t wake up until 11am this morning and half the day was pretty much gone. I still needed to go get some souvenirs for two of my family members so I got up and dressed to head to Sinoji Temple. The temple has many souvenir shops at good reasonable prices. My main objective was to find a shot glass and to find a post card. Both of those were on my list so everything went well in finding the things I needed but I wanted to find something for myself.

I was looking for a key chain with the cat that has his right hand up. The cat is a good luck charm and with the right hand raised means it attracts money. I thought it would pretty good to have that on my key chain so I searched almost every souvenir shop. Each souvenir shop had different prices but some had the same gift with different prices. I had to make sure that I was getting the right price so I had to visit almost every souvenir shop in the temple area. I finally found the one that gave me the best deal and man was I happy. I was just about to give up from all the walking I had to do. After finding my gifts I was ready to head back to the hostel and finish some work before our flight back home.
