This time they wanted a full reading, so we drove 3 hours through the mountains and into Kumamoto Prefecture to get there. I went to a nearby cafe (the upscale kind with fancy desserts and all kinds of teas) to wait for them to finish and tell me all about the crazyman stealing their money. The fortune teller asked what they wanted to know, then started shaking his head back and forth while tapping his finger on the table (they were pretty certain he was calling forth his powers, and not afflicted with Parkinsons disease). If you ask me, the suggestions and advice they got seemed more like a counselling session than a reading of their futures . . . since you work at night you can use your mornings to find another job and supplement your income . . . you're not attracted to the man that is after you so it probably wouldn't work out . . . the 18-year-old doesn't seem to be a very good dating prospect . . . All stuff I could have told them myself, but without the head shaking and finger tapping.
I was only along for the ride but it was a nice day for a drive and we stopped off at a really nice restaurant on the top of a hill. They make their own cheese and use natural spring water. It was nice; spring water tastes kind of sweet and doesn't have any aftertaste.
The wood-burning oven was near the entrance so you could peek in and see the pizza baking inside as you walked to your table. And the food was good, too!
Just hanging out in the cafe.
