Waiting For The Dawn

On This Day In History
1690: First paper currency is issued in the Colonies

Quote Of The Day
“Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value - zero.”
(Voltaire)

So where does that leave e-currency? Into minus figures, I imagine.

Anyway, that’s no concern of mine. I’ve carbo-loaded and I’m sitting in small but comfortable business hotel in Nara, just 100 meters from this temple, Koyuki-ji, excitedly awaiting tomorrow’s Nara Marathon.

I’m so happy these big organised events have started up again.
