During my first month on JET my mother wanted to pay me a visit to bring my winter clothes. She was here for a week so we decided to discover the area/help me settle in my apartment . We went to Mount Shosha which was a really beautiful place - you can see where ‘The Last Samurai’ & ‘March came in like a lion’ were filmed (provided I hadn’t watched any of those movies). When you reach Mt Shosha from the bus in Himeji you can choose to climb up or take the cablecar . We chose to take the cable car. Once you reach the top you are again given the option to climb or take a bus, we decided to take a bus. We did for the same way back down.However on the way down I tripped, just as I got off the cablecar and was approaching the bus that would take me back to Himeji. If it weren’t for my mum there I’m sure I would’ve fainted because I was barely aware of what was happening with cablecar staff rushing me to the bathroom to clean the blood of my leg. They kept telling me to go to the hospital but were also a bit hesitant since it was a Sunday. So my mum collected some first aid equipment from them and took me to the bus . After I returned to my senses I found I could walk a bit so we assumed I didn’t break anything - thus I didn’t need to go to the hospital. For a period of about 3-4 weeks I had trouble walking and running but it felt like it was healing5 months later , my leg is fine and I can walk normally but my knee still hasn’t properly healed and hurts from time to time especially when I bend it. I’m returning to Sydney for 2 weeks where I will probably visit a doctor , hopefully my knee is just healing slowly and is not infected. -- source link
