What Vig said, hiking up or down the mountain is really nice. We actually used the ropeway to go up, and then hiked back down by the longest route, it was great, but would have probably killed me if I had tried going up it instead (was summer, around 40C).

Oh and by the way, don't just visit Itsukushima shrine, you should also check out Daishō-in, which is further in the island, a very nice temple with lots of funky statues.

There's alot to do on Miyajima really, first time I went there I just spent the day, and was really frustrated not being able to see everything.
The second time, we got a japanese room by the beach on the west of the island, and spent the night there. Was really nice being able to walk around the streets at night, great atmosphere with the sleeping deer and all.

Meh, lucky bastard. 

I guess I should go sometime... 

did the omoto trail up and the main trail down. Weather wasnt great but still good enough by the time I got up to the summit. It was much easier than I was thinking it would be.

Oh and cheers for recommending Daisho-in, was going to skip it as I was a bit templed out after Kyoto and Nara but this was probably the coolest one I have been to. Pretty much the ideal japanese temple I had pictured in my mind: secluded, tranquil, colourful and picturesque, and kind of mysterious.

And vigil, colours are quite nice, some areas look better than others obviously. Kamikochi looked splendid with all the different colours.

those skins aren't that bad. i mean, i don't like them, but they seem well done. it looks like he used the original skin mapping too, which makes the job even harder instead of re-mapping the coordinates with a new model format. 

The original models are pretty ugly to work with - the skins themselves are quite well done. 

Pretty Nu-id.

is there a way in Fitz085 to play a music file from the console?

So now that Kindle is available internationally... is it worth getting one if you would like to re-read some classics and well as the newer stuff, yet consider carrying and dealing with paper books an big annoyance (and lets not even get into reading books on a PC)? 

Library? Seems to be okay for me.
