Back 2 Obi

So l stayed 2 days having good time with A&N between foods, shower outside ... oh yeah didn't l tell you? one of the most nice experience is to take the shower in the garden watching the grass and the sky with crabs peeping on my downtown!!! very nice spot for a shower... kinda of a wild life. Then A gave me his old times backpack with sleeping bag and a very narrow 'n' slim mattress and some ropes and they all fitted well in the backpack ... l had the plan to leave soon for Yakushima island, l wanted to stay few days with real wild nature and this island was just close by ... l would have been a total idiot if l didn't go there. But first l had to go back to Obi that Madhupan become again free from job so l could stay 2 more days before going to Yakushima and so, when l left from Nango A had to go to work early at 5 o'clock of morning and he could not bring me to the station although there are buses but l opted to walk and hitchhike ... for about half of the distance nobody was stopping then finally a car stopped and they were 2 young boys ... exited and surprised to see a gaijii (stranger) in their zone but l was even more surprised because first of all isn't so easy to see young people over there and the guy who was driving was a "round" type driving with the seat-back almost totally pulled down and his friend was kinda of punk with green hair!!! u can visualize them ... if it was in tokyo then it was perfectly normal but there in the middle of nature? LOL, it was very nice thought and they brought me to the station and so back to Obi l was.
The next morning we, me & madhupan, planned to go to bathe in a hot spring and then go to miyazaki city for shopping ... before leaving l wanted to check out once more time the price of the tent in the Home Center, l went once with sandals remember? but this time l hitchhiked!
also because the sun was very nasty that day so on the way to go l got, almost near by, a carpenter with his truck that he stopped, not because of me ... because he had to turn to go on but l got the chance to ask him while he was turning and l saw that for a fraction of a second he hesitated ... then welcomed me ... GOOD!
l saw the thing that l had to see and immediately back to the bread-sauna-shop but on the way back, with my thumb under the shining sun getting burned, nobody was stopping ... it was because of my long hair and beard? l don't know but u won't believe this: after l walked about half of the distance a car finally stopped (it seems that l have to walk half way before a car can stop for me ... kind of balance?) and it was a boy of near about my age ... he new where Madhupan was!!! and why? because he was living just near by!!! so he brought me directly to the front door!!! amazing uh!?
OK then we went to have a bath in a hot spring that was situated up on the hill and u could take the bath also outside with hill view ... the public bath isn't much for me, l think isn't very hygienic to bathe together with anybody in the same tub although this is one of the famous custom between japanese people ... l went with V in the beginning of my life here in Japan, just 2 or 3 times then l gave up ... also because to stay immersed in a hot water is kind of dulling (l'm talking for my taste may be for you is good) but l like very much in cold water, kinda to keep me alert because the body temperature is already warm so the contrast with cold water does some trick ... u gotta try it to get what l mean ... after all l prefer a shower.
But since l was a guest and never experienced a Hot Spring on the open with nature view, it was worth it trying. l even got bitten by some nasty insect on my foot while l was lied down on the stones watching the sky ... fucking insect! (l respect all kind of living beings but why the fuck he had to bite my foot ... what did l do to this fella? may be some karma!)
Anyway after an hour or so, we went to Miyazaki city to make big shopping ... also for pizza party ... oh yeah, they asked me to make pizza and of course it is my joy to make it, so we bought all the necessary ingredients, and we also went to see in a big outdoor shop to look for a tent, didn't find a decent one, so we stopped at the Home Center on the way back and bought the tent together with a 1 liter thermos bottle and a lamp that u can put on your head keeping free the hands ... nice shopping.
Back to home, l with the help of M, started to prepare the pizza ... they invited 3 more people for the night party.
And while the pizza dough was resting to become fatter l had to try to set up the tent on the river side ... it was may be 13 years that l did not use a tent so l was kinda exited to use it again! l just set it up and an old man stopped by, asked me very nicely: u sleep here? LOL.
then after few seconds started raining ... AOH?! fast fast pif paf puf to put everything back in the pack!!! also because the next day l had to leave so there was no time to dry it!!! good it did not get so much wet ... just a light rain.
Then finally l stayed in the very narrow kitchen to go on with pizza and salads ... l totally forgot to take pictures, sorry.
We ate it with mucho gusto then N put on an indian movie, one of the latest one ... my gosh how much they changed!!! it is very funny to see a new indian movie because until 2006 they were making always the same kind of love/hate/betrayal story with dilin dilin dilin group dancing (they are very good with dance .... in my opinion, in the whole world only the indians and the black people knows how to dance) and then the news for me was to see in an indian movie a western kiss!!! WOW a BIG STEP in the indian industry films (tell me if l'm wrong!)
