To Kyoto and beyond…
Saturday, May 20th, 2006So from Koya-san, passing back through Osaka and on to Kyoto.
Great to be back here. It seems nothing has changed, including the prices! Thank goodness for that. Budget being what it is, inflation is something I don’t want to contend with!
I made the long trek to the hostel of any traveller’s dreams… well not quite but a lot more interesting and comical than a lot of other places. I stayed here last time I was in Kyoto and couldn’t risist the opportunity of visiting again! The establishmeny is run by none other than Mr. Uno, who is a sight to be seen. I don’t think he has changed a bit since last I saw him: white string vest, suit trousers with Calvin Klein-esque briefs pulled above belt line to which the vest is firmly tucked into, an old pair of house shoes and the unmistakable head of unruly, jet-black-dyed carpet of side-parted hair. Fantastic.
