"Excuse me sir please carry silent conversation around here".

These were the words a bold Japaneses woman who was eager to practice her english...no disrespect.

Its been nice outside lately so me and one of my friends decided that well do neighborhood walks every night till we leave. At night the streests are very quiet and peaceful, unless some unruly genjings have something to do with it. Although i consider my voice to be very low, my frined on the other hand is not, he talks loud ALL THE TIME. So were talking about how life is from our perspective country's and this lady walks over to us from nowhere. At first we thought she was going to ask for a cigarette or a lighter or something along those lines, but instead she said, Excuse me sir please carry silent conversation around here. We were taking a back by what she said and at the same time we had nothing but respect for her. We just couldnt believe she said that. We laughed about it and refered to it that whole night as we did our neighborhood walk. We even got lost after walking for 3hrs. We had no idea 3hrs had passed. We thought we were circling our neighborhood or at least in its proximity. Everything looked the same. Once we realized we were lost we asked a couple of ppl how to get back to ontakesan and they laughed at us, cus we told them we were going to walk. They kept saying something in Japanese and then Taxi...and sure nuff we ended up taking a taxi home. It came to a grand total off 1340yen.
