Here is the last part of Attic Mirror. I'm writing slowly but I'm still writing. I can see the end of Attic Mirror coming, you will surely have more surprises reading it. I'm also thinking and dreaming a lot about more novels especially something that will fit with the new ending of Demon Soul as a sort of sequel in a sense even if the main characters will be different.
I hope you will enjoy knowing more about one of the characters that already appeared a few time in previous parts of Attic Mirror. Even if he is a secondary character, I worked so much on Antoine's background story (still not written and not planed on being written) that he feels to me like a main character. I hope to see more of him in the future, maybe in other stories even if for the moment I don't have ideas about it. He is a bit like the independent character that will appear at some point just because he feels like it.

Japan : My first (part 2)
En français
Here is the second part of my first times of doing something in Japan. Part 1 can be find here.
My first time skating in Japan.
The students had decided to go skating during the week-end. We took the train together for Yokahama to go to the outdoor skating ring that was open there. In Yokahama you have a sort of lake, or is it the sea, I'm not too sure, with a bridge that we crossed from the train station to the skating ring. On both side of that bridge there are Sakura tree so I would like to go back when they are blooming, that must be beautiful.
The skating rink was really crowded but we still managed to get it an have fun. I'm really happy because I didn't skate for years and I didn't fall.
We went to eat something before going back to the skating ring and I also had my first ice cream in Japan that day.
My first time at a Japanese Buddhist temple.
After my seminar, the group decided that we should go for lunch somewhere. We wanted to eat sushi but the sushi place was closed so we decided to go to the temple further away and to eat there as they have a lot of restaurants for noodles. We took the bus to get there. That wasn't my first time in a bus, just my first time in a city bus. I still don't know really how to use it, I gave the money and the driver didn't bother giving me a ticket.
There was a festival at the temple to celebrate the monk who brought Buddhism to Japan. They were selling Daruma dolls as a good luck charm.
My friend came from Osaka and took me for diner in Izakaya. That's a restaurant where the clients are separated in different rooms and where you can find all kind of food and drinks. That was pretty cool. I really like Japanese food. Basically since I'm here I never tried something I don't like.

Peru : Machu Pichu
En français
We got up at 4am again. We really wanted to arrive at the Machu Pichu as soon as it got open to be able to have the ticket they give only to 400 persons a day to go to the Huayna Pichu. We had to climb for two hours to get there and without breakfast I was getting already really tired. We queued to get in and managed to get the ticket.
Inside the view was absolutely amazing. This is not like the usual ruins that you usually see in Europe. The Machu Pichu is a really city. It's absolutely huge. We started to walk around and decided to go to the Inca bridge. That's a little further behind the city. From there we could see the Urubamba river. We were started to lack water so we bought some. It was really expensive. I was getting sick again, no breakfast with anti-malaria medicine didn't match. You need to eat with those things. We were sitting there and waiting to get better and thinking of getting back down. But not going to the Huayna Pichu when we had the tickets was really killing me more than the rest. So we finally decided to go there. That was deadly that was climbing a lot of stairs, hot like hell, with no water, I even had to beg for some when we got down.
But the view there worth it all, but next time I'll go I'll take sandwiches and water.
And we walk back down, that shows how crazy we are. Everytime we are going on holiday we have a day of craziness that pushes the limits of our bodies but that was a must.
I waited for Sebastien while he went to the city to buy some drinks and food. After eating we were feeling a lit better and decided to go all the way back to Hidroelectrica. Then we took a taxi to Santa Teresa where we wanted to get the bus to Ollantaytambo but the bus didn't stop and we arrived in Cuzco at 4am. We went back to the hotel and awake the guy at the entrance . We slept a great deal the next day.
