When l escaped from Jomon-sugi place because of sardines, just 10 minutes later l found a small repairing place like a 3 x 3 meter square with roof and 3 bench around, just a resting place but l was surprised to find a tent inside in it! oh f**K ... 'cos l was thinking first, that that was the Hut and second, l wanted to set up the tent just there under the roof ... but anyway l went in (not in the tent! but on the bench!) 'cos l was all wet even if l had the raincoat and furthermore l was hungry! and ... l dont know why, just suddenly l took the camera and made this self portrait l just wanted to see my face as if l never saw it!!! ... so ok u too can have a look of that strange fellow ...Had my lunch, had my siesta and l was also shivering a little bit ... practically since the lunch time it started to rain for real and non stop, so it was impossible to set up the tent just in the middle of the mud .... so l stayed almost 2 hrs there but time passed so VVUUUMMMMMM like a sec.
Then l noticed this tree had the branch interconnected with the other tree and l could not figure it out to whom really belonged the branch? u can look for urself ...
but of course it might be of the right one but who knows? Nature is known for making funny things too ... especially human beings LO~L.Going on another 10 min. further on the path l finally met this small Hut, Takatsuka Hut.
There were already few people inside, a big family with 3 big children, a man, 2 boys ... and they were occupying all the first floor whereas on the top there was a mama with a 26 (?) yrs old daughter and plenty of space for my 1 meter leg! so l chose to stay on the window side (so l could breath easily in case of emergence eh!) and then after an hour or so ... another family with 2 big boys 9 and 14 yrs old (??) an the guide! so the house became full like sa..... ok, just full. ln fact poor papa and the Guide, they had to set up the tent outside ... real adventure for them guys! anyway as soon as it become dark we all went (after chit chatting for a while with "dinner") under the sleeping bag and "gone".ln the morning farewell to everyone and also re-meeting Jomon
without the mess of the previous day ... farewell to him too 'cos l was heading back on the same path just then to go to Shiratani Unsuikyo Ravine ... fellas, thats the most beautiful place l ever saw in my life ... l mean l saw many other beautiful places just because l can see and catch the beauty wherever l am but this place, Shiratani, has its own magic ... it took 3 hours of beautiful dream-like walk and nasty backpack with its 19 kilos! to reach to the next Hut ... unfortunately l could not take any picture or movie on this path 'cos it was raining continuously and l was all wet withy my feet in the shoes that were making the ppss ppsss ppsss noise because of the water inside and the shoes were even water proof!l'll tell u more later on ... now gotta sleep ... 'night my fellow travelers!
