Bad Luck Day- February 23rd

Julio had a bad luck day today and I got caught in the cross hairs. So this is how it started. We met up and at around 11 am so we could run some errands. We had to go get a bike from our friebnds place first because we were going to be traveling a lot. So after some searching, texting, more searching, and heavy lifting we finally get the bike and the tires are flat, but has enough air to ride. Our first stop was the glasses store, which is where I really wanted to go so I could learn how to get glasses in Japan, and it is closed for renovations for the next 4 days. Our second stop is the post office sp Julio can figure out how he can get his Mt. Fuji walking stick back to America. We both completly fail at using our Japanese, but we finally manage to get the clerk to uderstand us enough to tell us the length limit of their shipping. So we go back to his apartment and measure the walking stick and it is too long and can't be shipped without shortening it. Our third stop was to get  curry for lunch, which is the cheapest time to ge curry, we ride to the furthest place that has the gpod curry and they are closed. So we settle for the other curry place who gave us a free and much needed good lucl butter nan even thoufh we were completely stuffed from our lunch sets. I ended up eating most of it while Julio only ate a little. On the way back to his apartment we are stopped by policewomen who asked to see our registration papers for our bikes, the first time I have been asked for them btw, necause she was looking for a bike theif. Neither of us had papers because O never got them from my landlord or sold me his friends bike and Julio was riding his friends bike. Thus, we had tp show her our residence cards and she copied down our information. I don't really know why you need to register a bike anyways- WHY JAPANESE PEOPLE WHY!!?? That was the extent of the bad luck because after that we just went  grocery shopping, went to the gym, ate some dinner, watched Deadpool and played some monopoly with Pete and Ashley. I totally was winning the first game before the gym, but we had to startover because Pete and Ashley cleared the table for dinner and so she can play. Ashley didn't even end up playing and Julio beat Pete and I. Guess he got his luck back by the end of the day haha.
