Hang in There, Kogasa-san 2496
I was delighted that Ran-shama was able to arrive in Kyoto, okay? :-) However, thanks to coming into Kyoto the day before, it ended up costing me roughly an additional ¥20,000, so I just was a bit annoyed at having lost the bet!
Well, the difference was the Ran-shama person took a morning bullet train, while I caught one in the evening, so it was difficult to make a contest out of it. Ultimately, things were operating as usual, though. (^^;)
