Tests
I wanted to post about our trip to Heian Jingu, but I kind of have two big tests today and I've only studied about an hour in total. Beth should be getting something up, too, since she doesn't have club stuff tonight. Or tests.
Most shrines have huge torii. I'm talking upwards of 25 feet in height, here. I don't recall these being noticeably larger. You might be right and I just didn't notice them. I did have a rather disproportionate number of cute girls in my group, so I won't say I was focusing on the shrine as much as I would have if I were on my own. That said, we got to go all around inside the shrine, and in a lot areas that were very pretty but had nobody else there, for some reason.

Yeeesh! Good luck on your tests! Do you often have two big ones at once like that? More class talk, I guess...but I'm curious.
That is the shrine with the huge torii isn't it?
