Kyoto

Ok fellas! this time l gotta move on alone, in fact V went back to TYO and l was with K .. he insisted on help me to find a place to stay even if l said do not worry (see when l wrote about osaka) so we decided to stop by in some internet-cafe to find out a room somewhere ... well what can l do if people like to help? ... so lets make them happy!!! l had my own logic and it was like this: l stayed for 4 days in V family's place and they refused to accept some of my economical share so l said that at the most l'll find some hotel, if l cannot find a cheap ryokan or guesthouse or dormitory , for 2~3 days it was perfectly ok 4 me to spend a little bit more ... anyway l'm thankful for the help that l got, may be it was part of the flow, then why go against it?! so as we sat down in internet cafe, in just 5 minutes K found out a nice acceptable priced hotel room in a nice zone too!!! he asked me if it was ok 4 me? but sure ... book it and lets forget about it! lt was this one: Le LIOND'OR and l recommend it if u have no choices and if u are there of course! (but l paid 4000 yen one night against the 6000 yen that they are showing now in their HP...might have been lucky). thanx K.
It is just in front of Nijo Castle ... didn't have time to go there thought.
2 days l stayed in kyoto... l know l know that itsn't enough to see everything after all didn't l say that tourist l am not? right away. then l preferred to spend more money 'n' time down in the south where there is wild nature and sea ect ect ...
With all the majesty and beauty that kyoto had to offer, where did l go first? Fushimi Inari Shrine! when l saw the movie "Memoirs of a Geisha" by steven spielberg l remained enchanted by these red gates ... so l went there and when l entered inside the place and l was looking for these gates, l didnt know where they where and l didnt ask to anybody to show me the way, l just let my feet to go ... in fact after a while l felt a kind of sensation that l was on the right path and then WOW and walked through almost all of these gates ... it was a long way but l liked it, l liked, while walking, the effect of light/shadow flickering in betweens ... it was worth it but l never thought that it took almost 2 hrs to go through almost all!!!
