Japan #3: Did J. K. Rowling visit Kyoto?

Posted at April 21, 2006

I visited Kyoto, Japan lately. We walked the “The Philosopher’s Trail” in Kyoto, a walk next to the river in Kyoto, with lovely Sakura hanging over you.

Philosophers path.

A bit down the trail we found these rocks dressed with pieces of cotton:

Stones with clothes.

So my daughter (for whom I have read the six Harry Potter books twice each, and number two three times) says:

“Hey look dad, they are wearing pillows just like Dobby!”

Dobby shows up in the second Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

And the first Harry Potter book is called Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (the original title)….

Just a thought…!

    My bad! Thanks for correcting me, Prof. Pan. It’s a question of being to tired when posting (and not having English as first language).

    Sorry about that!
