Shiratani and Bye Yak

Well l guess this is my last post on the beautiful Yakushima island (may be not ... who knows?)
so l show u right away the last Polaroid map here in the beginning and so u will see the red trail and that was the first hiking all along the river and on the railway (the horizontal line) and then into the mountain upwards till ball 12, Jomon-sugi ok.


And the orange trail was towards Shiratani (forgive me l didn't manage to take proper pictures on this place 'cos of continuous raining ... however l found few nice pictures of someone else ... go 2 see) and l arrived at the ball 13, where there was the other mountain Hut, and see the line when l cut to the left into the deep forest from the red trail? yes that one ... that little piece in between ... mystical. sorry more than this l'm failing to express the feeling and it must have been the same feeling when Hayao Miyazaki got there and got inspired to make the famous Princess Momonoke anime ... l saw it and it is really beautiful and Hayao managed to share the awesome feeling of this mystical place in the anime in a very beautiful expression of art through technology ... u gotta watch it ... it is worth it, so better go to your rental video shop and rent it ... l'm sure u'll love it.
But when l reached to the Hut l was horrified to find it overcrowded, everyone totally wet like the rabbi ... u have to understand what l'm telling right now ... l was reading an Osho book (and also recently l was following a "race" of "dirties" jokes in an intimate "place" and l thought that this joke, l'm going to tell u right now, was from there but l didn't find it and then remebered where did l read it) and He told a joke and it was such a nice joke! and so it goes like this:

Two little children were playing with their dog by the sea when the dog was carried out to sea by a big wave. A passing rabbi dived in, saved the dog and revived it by artificial respiration.

The children asked, "Hey, rabbi, are you a vet?"
"Am I wet?" replied the rabbi. "I am absolutely soaked!"

LOL ... now u get what did l mean? and this Hut was much much bigger and when l tried to make way to go in ... my gosh, believe me, u will not love to be there in my shoes at that moment but not even dreaming it .... it was lunch time and outside, deep non-stop rain and inside, everyone sprawled around standing sitting and yoga positions and whatnot ... and ok it wasn't so terrible to see it but the smell! oooohhh my ... forgive me for telling u this but it is unforgettable! because the toilet was inside and ... ok u got it, so l had to eat in a room where there was a little space for my flat ass ... well! there might have been 6 or 7 separate touristic groups + families and travelers just like me ... and after lunch, just in a half an hour they all went out to go on ... it was amazing to see this! not like sardines but like branches of sheep with the "pastor" screaming IKIMASHOOOO IKIMASHOOOO (lest go lets go) !!!

... dammit! l gotta go ... see what did l say in the beginning? ok no problem l'll finish in the next post ... and by the way, strange coincidence! 'cos before writing this post l already put the title and did u see that l stopped at Yak instead of Yakushima? thats why ... now l get it!
so see u later! (^o^)/ bi

PS = Actually the joke l shared before l found it here! oooowwww l got confused ... sorry f(^.^)
