Re: I went to Kiyomizu Temple yesterday!

Hello, Hamako(^^)/"

〉"秋の京都"
〉I'm charmed by your report.
〉I had a few times to visit Kyoto.
〉My parents love Kyoto and Nara.
〉They often went to Kyoto or Nara by their car and they asked me to go to there.
〉But I often said, "no thanks. Because めんどくさい" (^^;)
〉It took about two hours by a car and then we arrived, there are only temples or shrines.
〉I thought how boring.
〉I was a child...
〉I went to Kyoto at fifth grade, too. It was a school event.
〉Almost elementary school in the Kansai aria goes to Kyoto or Nara.
〉But Kyoto is for adultfood, don't you think so?

Yeah, I know your feeling!
When I was a child and went to TODAIJI in Nara for a school event, the best pleasing thing to me was a lot of deer!
I had thought the form of temples or DAIBUTSU was cool a bit, but it didn’t beat deer.
As I grow up, I get to know ancient Kyoto and Nara’s dignity, I think.

〉I remember this.
〉Last time, I came to Kyoto, I went to Yasaka-Jinjya with friends.
〉It was a new year's visit to a shrine.
〉We went to there at night.
〉There were so many people.
〉Actually, I got some coins in my food which people threw for make a wish to a god.
〉One of the friends is my husband now(*^^*)
〉It was fifteen yeas ago's story. Aha.

I've never beent to Yasaka Shrine, but heard about the duffel coat-coins story.
Wow, I could glimpse one of your romances! I'm flashing(o> <o)

〉〉There were people, people, people, a crowd of people who came from all over the world.
〉〉“A tourist site is really amazing!” I thought.
〉〉When I was climbing the slope to Kiyomizu Temple, three Chinese people passed me, singing a Chinese cheerful song in loud voices, beating rhythm on the earth with sticks.
〉〉“W, What is that!?” I was surprised at first, but I got more and more excited too!

〉I wonder what is it?

I don’t know either.
Their voices were very very loud, and I was just startled!
There were many Chinese people there that day.

〉You got it!
〉I've seen these view and tourists on several lacal TV programs last week.
〉I guess if I saw you?(^^)

I’m afraid I didn’t saw a kind of people filming for TV program, but I saw a few people taking pictures with a big camera.
So I might be in those pictures of a magazine or of Internet and so on, maybe…?

〉Sigh...
〉I'm so grad you share that your wonderful experience with us.
〉I hope you'll have a good trip again.
〉Bye!

Yeah! I’m looking forward to next year.
If you have an opportunity, how about visiting Kyoto one more time with your family? (^^)
Bye-bye!
