Of course, there's a number of good books... but there's also a lot of rubbish out there (hopefully I haven't added to <i>that</i> list).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10245689060247741542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355923046579889657.post-70502376982822699672010-07-27T19:57:56.981+09:302010-07-27T19:57:56.981+09:30Hi Jenny - there's beauty in all things, and G...Hi Jenny - there's beauty in all things, and Geisha accentuate one form of it. Like a great painting, they can be marvelled at from a distance, but few of us would ever have the chance to know them up close. I prefer to let the mystery (like the Mona Lisa) remain alive, for us to wonder at.<br /><br />I suppose that the tradition will always continue (in one form or another), at least I hope so. There are few things that really distinguish ourselves in this global community... and it's nice to cherish those things that do, even if they may seem slightly anachronistic.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10245689060247741542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355923046579889657.post-81377571689793515562010-07-27T12:04:03.466+09:302010-07-27T12:04:03.466+09:30Paparazzi!

It's really amazing seeing how their tradition and history is kept alive.Jennyhttp://www.jenny-chan.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355923046579889657.post-43776358972420461112010-07-27T10:23:50.671+09:302010-07-27T10:23:50.671+09:30With all my fascination with Japanese culture I ne...With all my fascination with Japanese culture I never actually knew much about geishas.
