Turkey potluck thing sounds like great fun. I did actually imagine that if I went looking in Meidi-Ya or somewhere, there probably would be turkeys to be had, but I'm not that fussed about it -- especially since tonight (Wed) there was a party at the university for me. One of the professors went fishing and caught a WHOLE COOLER FULL of fish (buri), and a few of the grad students fixed everything from sashimi to yakizakana to TWO DIFFERENT kinds of nabe to butter-yaki with broccoli. I am stuffed full, and slightly tipsy, and it was fun, so this is enough Thanksgiving for me this year.
I like the sounds of your PT guy very much! And sitting in your chair sounds like something fixable, which is great news.
I'm in Fukuoka, so I won't be hanging around in Arashiyama much, lol. Around here the ginkgo leaves have gone all yellow, but that's about it -- there's a lot of green otherwise. I was up in Nara last weekend, and there I saw some red as well as yellow, but I don't think it's at peak yet. I'm going to Kobe for a linguistics conference this weekend (I think), so I'll see if Kansai's gotten any further along in a week.
