With: Aiko, Sam

Route: Along the Kamogawa, Demachiyanagi to Gojo and back

Every few hundred meters someone else was doing exactly what we were doing, which somehow made it feel more private, not less. We bought chestnuts from a stall with no sign. Aiko taught me the word for the light at this time of day and I have already forgotten it, which she will never let me live down.
