Cross Country Voyage - Beginning

Well, here I am, sitting in the middle of a park somewhere in Himeji, at 1am, stealing internet from some nearby resident. It's pretty chilly tonight, and I have to lug my laptop and backpack with everything in it all over the place, but at least I'm out of Hiroshima and on my way. I took a train to Okayama, and then transferred to another train to Himeji, which went relatively smoothly. I don't have a place to stay here though, and I figure I'll just hang out outside and sleep under a tree for the night. I tried to find a place to get a late night meal, but instead ended up in the red light district being asked if I wanted massages every 5 minutes. One of them was rather persistent, but finally gave up when I told her "I worked for Nova, no money." This city in general seems a lot shadier than Hiroshima, but I'm only here for a day anyway. I'll do the castle tour and check out the gardens tomorrow, and then onwards to Nara.
