Owl, That Really Hurt

Puns are fun. However, I had a hard time coming up with a good owl pun.  If you have one, leave a reply or shoot me an email.  I’m curious.

Walking through Kyoto yesterday was perfect.  I was reminded that I absolutely love just walking a city.  I don’t have to be doing anything.  Just walking.  Seeing what life is like.  Nodding to the old lady that was just swaying in the drizzling rain and having her warmly nod back.  You know, the basics.

I did come across the Nishiki Market which was cool.  Touristy.  But cool.  And near that market I found the Owl Forest Zoo.  When I first read the sign, I thought, “No way they just have owls hanging out.  And no way they let me pet the owls.”  Yes way.  And yes way.

Wow. This was so much fun.  And I never would have seen it had I not just been out walking.  That’s one of the things I enjoy about the way I travel.
