Friday afternoon, Rob came down from the wilds of Kuma and we set out for the second largest city in Ehime, Niihama, to see our friend David’s art gallery show and basically hang out and have a good time with the lowest of the low-keyed people in the world.
The guy even let me take all the pictures off a wall and rearrange them as I saw fit because I didn’t like the way he had them up there.
At any rate, we set off from Matsuyama and stopped in Saijo, which actually seems like more of a city than Niihama since its more built up and citylike than Niihama’s widespread not-so-tall buildings.
