So it is the last day that we're staying in Numata Hotel and we decided we wanted to stay longer in Kyoto.

I'm just cooking some breakfast here.

Just put some oil in the pan and I'm going to repack everything and get going because today is a long day and we're going to some really cool places tonight.

We're going to, we're going to have a special treat and I can't wait for you guys to see it because this is something that I haven't done before and I've been wanting to do for a really long time, your keys in the shower right now and we are about to get going.

So I'll see you guys in a little bit.

We were about to say goodbye to the apartment hotel Mie maru kyoto station which has been such a delightful stay.

It felt like we were moving out because it was an apartment hotel.

I loved seeing the bullet trains go by in the morning and I'll especially miss the relaxing bath.

There's so many different types of rooms.

So check out their link below and depending on how large your group or family is, you can decide on the room type.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So we're going to the bamboo forest which is in kyoto, it's one of my favorite places because it's just really beautiful and there's so many paths to take and everything.

We're just going to look around and shop.

Oh my God, those owls are so cute!

So pretty.

Oh my gosh, like the magnets mhm The first time at this temple here and we're going to go inside.

Right?

And thank you for being here.

Black comedy skits like quite high.

Uh huh Yeah.

Mhm.

Put it here.

Yeah, it reminds me of a community center.

Yeah.

Arashi Yama is built on beauty and art.

If you love shopping for souvenirs, this is the place to be.

Most things are handmade or made from scratch and each item you choose holds a lot of meaning to it.

Yeah, like film kimono out of this.

It's what is it called?

They say, oh kini bikini.

You know what that means?

I forgot.

How do you get told me is he company Sushi.

So case that we're about to try kyoto beer.

What it is.

We got two glasses and a bottle of beer and yeah, let's try it.

I have a soy nut and egg allergy and you would think it would be super difficult finding somewhere to eat.

But as long as I didn't eat any sauces and plain food, I was totally okay.

Sushi is for sure a safe thing to go for on a trip to japan with allergies.

There's a mask out of a comma.

Get this shop.

This is so crazy.

I like when there's so much stuff in one job.

I like that.

That's a cute bag.

I never so cute.

We should get a pink and blue one.

Having a japanese fiancee is great because he knows where all the lesser known cafes and hotspots are.

Let's go.

Yeah, mm hmm.

This place is unique in which you can grill japanese dango.

So cool.

Dango is japanese mochi rice cake on a sick.

Yeah, So we are at a cafe that basically cook dango, which is moochie rice, put it on the fire.

They have a lot of really delicious sweets and maturity that you can have.

And oh yeah, that's so cool.

And we're gonna cook our dog.

No, so I'm excited.

I've never been here before.

So this is the first time I'm experiencing this.

So let's order some django one grill set comes with six tango six and is about 1300 yen japanese at suki bean paste and a type of soy sauce to dip it in.

Is also provided that sookie bean paste was okay for me and my allergies.

And the dango was very filling.

So I got my dango set.

So they give you this little hot grill, you can feel it's so hot and then they give you so much to me, which I'm gonna be drinking.

And um, hokey dango.

So this is what it looks like, You're supposed to cook it on here and then dip it into one of these sauces.

I'm only going to use the ndp being because I can't have the soy.

So I'm gonna cook the first one to do it.

Okay, here we go.

Yeah.

Okay, so I'm gonna eat my first down room.

I should dip it into the movie.

it's too hard.

Okay, so we got to turn it.

Oh no, oh no, I think it's cooked.

They also have a lot of other japanese sweets and treats to eat and drink on the menu if you're interested in trying them as well.

We're headed to the kimono forest now, take a look.

I bet it's so beautiful at night though, so I'm kind of bummed that we're going now, but we have, I did a very special dinner reservation kimono forest in my opinion is the most underrated tourist spot in kyoto.

It's located at Nandan Arashi Yama station and at night it's the most beautiful sight to see, but we went to see it during the day and it was just as beautiful around 600 pillars make up the so called kimono forest and made by the fabric died for kimono making in kyoto, there is one more notable off the beaten path place in kyoto, tourists don't know about.

Okay, so we're going off the beaten path right now.

So here we are Yokai street, which is a monster street.

So it's basically a ghost themed street in Japan and not a lot of tourists come here, but we wanted to check out the old shops and see all the ghost figures.

They also have an app which I cannot find.

Um, but you can hold up the camera and you'll see ghosts on the street, so it's kind of fun to play with, but I don't have the app and I can't find that I used, I had it before, but it's gone.

So uh if you guys can find it, let me know.

Yeah, we're gonna just explore a little bit and see what they have.

There's one goes to statues of ghosts from japanese folklore lined the streets around Halloween.

They have a huge ghost festival where everyone dresses up as Japanese spirits and celebrate.

It's a very quiet and peaceful section of kyoto and I recommend it to get away from the bustling crowds and go for a unique walk.

He found this temple along the way.

Are these grapes like of people?

Okay, this is round two of my battery being drained because there's probably ghosts here that totally drained my batteries.

There's a shrine across the street.

This is the quietest place ever.

Okay.

The one thing that's interesting is this town has music.

It's like, I feel like I'm in a video game, wow, this is so beautiful.

This is gorgeous.

This one quoi quite cool.

Go whoa!

Oh, there's another ghost.

They found another one.

He's a happy ghost.

He looks like a bed ghost.

We found another one.

Oh, this one's cute.

There's another ghost.

It's a funny ghost.

There's another, you okay?

You okay?

These, Wow, there's so many.

There's 1, 2, 3, mm hmm a long time ago, like it was all abandoned, I guess that's why it's tools.

Uh makes sense.

What?

All these tools.

Yeah, because sandals are something they all turn into Yokai.

That's so funny.

Uh Hanya Panya.

Mhm Cool.

I looking out of legal 1020, he's scary.

His hand, his hand is like fucked up.

So was his feet?

You okay?

We stopped to cool off at a nearby cafe and then headed to the best experience I've ever had in my entire life.

This place was very cozy with amazing par phase, but we opted for just coffee and juice because we were going to have a big dinner.

Mhm Yeah.

Uh huh.

Mhm, mm hmm.

Uh going over ship open.

The only answer.

Okay, we oh, oh okay.

Uh huh, mm hmm.

I didn't know what to expect.

But this has been my dream for such a long time.

We were invited to dine with a real maiko and geisha who graciously entertained us and kept us company.

We were greeted by a professor of japanese history and translator who taught us all about the life these women lead.

I have never been so excited to hear and learn about their stories and enjoy my time with them.

I was so shocked to learn that the woman without the makeup is the full geisha.

You may be passing full geisha on the street and never even know it.

Oh my gosh, I'm just like nervous, I don't know what to say, the ornaments and the Michael's hair symbolizes the house that she lives in as well as the season we're in now so it can change depending on the time of year.

The professor told us that the Maiko is in training for almost six years before becoming a full geisha.

They're not allowed to go out shopping or to the convenience store and must be escorted to their job.

They wear their hair the way this might go is wearing it now every day.

And even at night they must sleep on a wooden pedestal like in the movie memoirs of a geisha if you've ever seen it and they aren't allowed to use social media or cell phones.

Yeah.

Mhm No call me a to see a dance like this up close and personal is very rare and it made me emotional because it seemed the dance was telling a story.

I was also emotional because I was so excited about this opportunity.

Oh my After the performance, we were invited to play some drinking games with the Maiko.

These games are called rosa shaky.

Also be the first game was called contour.

A funny funny basically an empty socket boxes placed upside down between two players and the geisha sings a song as the song progresses.

Each player must tap or lift the box in turn.

If the box is lifted, they must tap there closed fist on the empty table.

The key to the game is to get the other player distracted so that they tapped the table with an open hand instead of with a closed fist.

The music, it's faster as the game progresses and often the loser must drink from the sake box.

I think that a reward good.

Uh huh.

The next game is called Tora tora tora which means tiger.

Tiger Tiger.

A screen is employed and two players must hide behind each side of the screen.

A song is sung at the end of the song.

Each player must creep out from behind the screen while assuming one of three rolls samurai, old woman or tiger.

This makes the game a very elaborate form of rock paper scissors.

Old woman beats the samurai with her cane but loses to the tiger that eats her.

The samurai cuts down the tiger with his sword after this.

Amazing.

Once in a lifetime experience.

We had something sweet to eat and talked with the micro for some time.

Then we headed out the door to go home.

Oh, they're different.

Oh, by my stuff.

Thank you very much.

I hope you enjoyed the third day of our kyoto trip.
