Students had 1-hour lunch break in Demachi-Yanagi Sta. area where two rivers, Takano-river and Kamo-river, joined into one big Kamo-river, the major river in Kyoto city. The Keihan line took us to the Fushimi Inari Grand Shrine being famous for 1000s of mini-Torii gate under which paths and tons of steps continued to reach the top of the Inari-mountain from which the entire Kyoto-city was visible from the South side. Students went over the mountain and came down to another side of the bottom of the mountain where they could find the part of the Higashiyama (East Mountain) Trail Hiking Course along which they could get to Tofuku-ji temple. This trail connects the entire 36 mountains in the eastern side of Kyoto-city. Several students took a wrong way at the beginning of climbing up the Shrine hill and we lost a couple of students on the way down from the hill, though everyone could meet with each other at the end. Because of loss of a little time here and there we unfortunately couldn't enter Tofuku-ji temple.
One of students became 25 years old today and his host family held the birthday dinner and GTS was invited to the party where Sushi and Ayu-fish, etc. were served. Everyone followed how GTS ate and spent a little fun time before their completing the homework!! Beer? Oh, yes!!
