Temple hours

Got up at 5:30 in the morning. I haven't been able to adjust my biological clock to the LA long-day and short-night timezone yet. First thing coming to my mind was going to a Buddhist temple. Maybe minutes of meditation can help. At 9 AM, Little Tokyo appeared to be deep in a sound sleep. So fresh, so tranquil. I found the Higashi Hongwanji Buddhist Temple on the East 3rd Street, but unfortunately it was not open. The notice read: Monday - Saturday: 9:30 AM. Sunday 10AM. New thing to learn: Temples might not open 24 hours. So visitors and worshipers should check in advance. Sad that I couldn't get in, but I will come back.
