18.12.2013 | 京阪の秋(二)

[Volume 8 Issue 12, #1839]
今次呢個日本之旅, 感覺就係眨一眼「雪」一聲咁樣就過咗去, 好似寫呢篇遊記所需要嘅時間仲更加漫長, 哈哈!! 個旅程其實就好簡單, 第一日夜晚到大阪, 第二朝去京都過一晚, 第三日下晝返去大阪, 第四日全天後遊大阪, 第五日早機返吉隆坡.. 就係咁喇, 所以我好肯定我會去多次京都, 因為(返到嚟寫遊記時做資料搜集發現)有好多地方我想去睇但係又冇時間, 或者應該等春天再去, 可以欣賞櫻花盛放當前嘅京都.. 今日帶俾大家秋天嘅京都, 希望大家會喜歡啦.. :) 
the japan trip this round feels like it was over within a blink and a "zroooom", i think the time i spent to write the travelogue was even more than the trip itself, haha!! the itinerary was actually very simple, first day arrival at osaka at night, second day morning to kyoto for a night's stay, third day afternoon back to osaka, fourth day we have one whole day in osaka, fifth day morning fly back to KL.. that's it, thus i am very sure that i will go to kyoto again, because (while doing post-trip research while writing this travelogue, i realized) there are still many places i wished to go yet no time to go, perhaps the next trip should be in spring, so that i can see this beautiful ancient city under the blooming sakura.. am writing about kyoto in autumn today, hope you will like it.. :)

      They are selective at giving out those tissue packs nowadays. A sign of slowing economy?

      For instance, a tissue pack promoting a pachinko place won't be given out to me. Not to my son. But my hubby will probably be handed one.

      A tissue pack promoting a skincare product won't be given out to son.

      Something like that la... ;)

    That's why I love researching for post-travel posts. I'd learn there are more & more interesting that I hate yet to visit ir visited but didn't realise it's historical / current significance.

    My travel posts usually would make me want to return and explore more. Just like you! :-)

    Yes, there is always the misconception about geishas from foreigners. Geishas had to undergo strict and long training before they can become one. Yes, they "serve" men but please do not demean them and label them as just some common place prostitutes.

    You are fast SK. This is the second travelogue already. Good lar plan to go Japan again during spring season. - Sakura must be very nice. When we opt to go for free and easy tour, usually we would learn more things, see more things and indeed know the places more precisely.

      F: Yeah, haven been here too. Tourist spot with the famous Kiyomizu temple over here. Not just you, I also feel shy to test all the food they served there. They sold many traditional local sweets snack here. My MIL did bought a few Geisha dolls from here. Not cheap too but we managed to bargain a lil bit and brought back 3 different Geisha dolls to display at home. We visited the temple first then slowly come down the lane for shopping.

If I'm not wrong the garden is quite wide and spacious. If you went inside, there was a staircase you can see more Buddha's statues - I think there are 12 of them. You got visit to pray the matchmaking temple or not? I think is somewhere there also.

    Ok, your itinerary is quite straight forward, but interesting. I like! Sometimes we din't really need to plan everything so details right? Sometimes we might encounter unexpected pleasant surprises during a trip and thus have to change/adjust the itinerary a bit.

    All pictures are too lovely. I can see you were so enjoyed and having so much fun. I really envy for stepping your foot on a beautiful place like Kyoto.

    I actually bought instant noodles almost every alternate day from convenient store when I were in Taiwan.

    You must be wondering after having so much snack from Taiwan night market, why still bought instant noodles? We actually just wanted to try the instant noodles there.

    By the way, I tried onsen at Taiwan too. I went totally naked too. Hahaha! Just for an experience. Jin Jin took the girls with him to open swimming pool. I alone went to soak in ladies only hot spring.

    Frankly tell you, I didn't feel as shy as I expected. Partly because majority women are elder than me, so I had no problem showing off my body, ahem!
