We didn't dream it all!

[livejournal.com profile] gryfeathr's in Kyoto now, and I gave her directions to the mysterious kitsune shrine [livejournal.com profile] rachelmanija and I found. After a phone email of "We can't find it!" that had me wondering how much more mysterious this shrine could get, she and her companion/s managed to find it, and she sent me a picture from her phone.





Slightly less overgrown at the moment than when we were there at the end of summer, but still nicely mysterious. :D You can see the two torii gates and the small wooden shelter with benches, and then the kitsune statue just beyond it. The hill-like structure with the mysterious wooden door chained shut is just beyond that, but you can't see it here.

ETA: Rachel links to our reports of the shrine and the photo gallery of it in this post.
