Very beautiful footage! *_*

I half-expected you to bump into softypapa in the video, then I see he already commented here. Haha.

Do you know what type of bird that was calling in the background? It sounded like some type of thrush. (Sorry about the entirely random question, but I didn't know if Japan had that type of bird [or something similar], and if you happened to know it would be considerably easier than an hour of google search. lol)

@weya

It was Softy hiding in the bush imitating a bird ^-^

Sorry.. don't know that one ^_^

Such a beautiful place. So quiet and peaceful amidst the trees. The river looks like a fun place to play during summer. ~Kurt :-)

@softypapa

I knew you would like it!

You would have liked climbing the mountain behind it with us too!

That must be a zen temple with the meditation zebuton cushions where you face the wall to meditate. You should take a class there.

@Limastudent

Thanks for the advice..

but I am a Buddhist and I practice kyudo which is a form of zen meditation.. so I get at least 6 hours of zen meditation a week.

For a split second the stairs @ 0:29 reminded me of the stairs leading to the 'Place du Tertre' in Paris. Don't ask me why, 'cause here there is no noice, no millions of tourists you have to crawl over and best of all : No 'Sacre Coeur' ......I sooooo want to go to Japan!!!

@ryderawr It's not that simple :P. Most of the time people contemplate while working. I've seen a footage about Buddhist temple once, there was this chubby (not fat though) European dude. After the first day in the temple, he nearly dropped dead on the floor. In Asia religion is not a way of being lazy.
