Little Accident

I had a little accident yesterday where I did a nosedive on asphalt in Gonohe and lost a sizeable portion of the skin on my elbow due to friction when the street stopped my forward movement.

The japanese healthcare system is awesome though. 2 visits at surgeons including x-rays and bandage material plus prescribed medication where just about 200€. I'm quite sure that in Germany you can't even buy the (pretty high-tech) materials for that much.

The nurses couldn't speak english, but Google translate with speech to text translation mitigates that quite a bit. The doctors I saw were both quite fluent, so all in all no problems there.

Anyways. Although the painkillers work quite good I don't want to stress the arm too much and will continue in a few days.
