Thursday was such a wet and gloomy day, but despite that, we decided to go all out and visit the Tsukiji Fish Market anyway. But we failed and woke up at 5 a.m. and missed the fish auction.

After our trip to Kasukabe, we continued our trip down to Washinomiya, which simply involved a train ride up on the same train from the same station. As soon as we arrived, we saw this. The fact that we were on the right track was now beyond the shadow of a doubt.

Its one of those times when you leave on a trip and everything goes haywire. My site was down for two whole days and that made me go WTF all night for the past two nights because I couldn't tell anyone how much fun it was on my blog. But I can finally do that today. I went on the legendary Lucky Star pilgrimage through Kasukabe and Washinomiya because I love Kagamin.

This week the student council faces a tremendous adversary in the form of a cute, unassuming child of a wealthy family. Unbeknownst to them, her intentions in coming to the meeting are far more sinister than what appears to be mere a child taking up important official school time.

Looks like Kagami and Tsukasa got to my new battery and SD card before I even had a chance to look at the packaging. Yes. One must prepare to record history before his travels, because one will never know what archaeologist in the distant future may discover a certain civilization of the past that idealized hair tied on both sides of the head and pleated skirts.
