Izu's World

I hardly slept last night. I didn’t feel excited or anything like this before I went to bed, but still – I kept tossing around in the bed for most of the night, waking up at 6am – nearly an hour before my alarm. I took my time, checking Elliquiy, emails, IMs, etc. I still didn’t feel all that excited, just tired and sleepy. I managed to get to the bus station just on time to buy the last ticket for this route and I got to sit next to the window :3

A little over three hours, passing through tons of endless meadows, seeing an amazing field with sunflowers all the way to the horizon, I finally got to the small town where the resort is. Somehow I managed to find the resort without asking for directions and was accommodated right away… Only that it wasn’t all that easy x’D I ended up being put in a room without AC (which is not a big surprise as the resort is mainly ski resort, so they hardly use half of the rooms during the summer, so they don’t need AC), so I went down, argued with the morons at the reception for half an hour (they claimed that all the rooms with AC were taken), called their manager (yay for google-ing skills!) and they (oh so very surprisingly) found a room with AC. So I moved to it. And ten minutes later went back down to the reception desk as there was no AC in this room either x’D So another ten minutes later I was finally moved to a 3rd room, finally having air conditioning.

A bumpy beginning, but I hope that this would be the first and the last problem. :]

The group leader ( the one who will be guiding us through the mountains and will be also our gym instructor) is damn cute! :] And damn nice too – he told the chef to change my salad at dinner because I didn’t like vinegar :3

After dinner I went to the downtown – 3 minutes walk, then to a supermarket to buy an anti-mosquitoes spray as we were told that hiking up in the mountains will be a challenge when it comes to fighting the mosquitoes. x/D We’ll see.

Mm… that’s all for today. Not much. But I’m quite exhausted. The air here is crystal clear. It’s still hot, but there is this fresh cool wind. There are some amazing views (this place is surrounded by mountains), so I’ll try to take some cool pictures tomorrow, though I can’t promise about the quality as my camera is shitty and old x/D

*yawns and rubs eyes* And I think about snuggling with mah pillow early tonight because tomorrow we’ll start the day with yoga in the middle of a field ;D
