blue city
i think i am starting to run out of creative energy. that, or this city is just kinda sad. i walked around aomori today for several hours, but i didn’t take very many photos at all.
aomori feels like it is depressed. the city, or at least, the pretty large area of it that i walked around today, feels like it is slowly falling apart. feels like a city in decline.
it took me a while to write this blog post, because i don’t really like the idea of being negative about any of the places i have been to. but this city was an absolute miss for me. i think it may be possible that i am either a - just running out of creativity juice, or b - just ended up in an uninteresting part of the city and got a negative opinion of it entirely based on that.
i don’t have much to write about other than that. i tried to go to 4 different restaurants and one bar, and all of them gave me the “🙅 japanese only”. this is sort of what i get for venturing off the expected path tourists take, i guess. i’m not mad about it, it happens. and for the record, i am like 99.99999% sure the “japanese only” is not referring to race at all, but language. i think if i was fluent in japanese they all would have let me in.
ah well. they can’t all be bangers. gotta have some barstows to make big sur look beautiful.
i don’t have any sections to break this one up into, because that’s basically it. i do have some photos, though.
