Wednesday, 24th through Monday 29th

 On Wednesday the 24th, we went to the Sushi Center (Hisago Sushi) near the Central Market for vegetables and fish to learn how to make sushi (Nigiri and Temaki), and ate what we made ourselves.   Some created beautiful sushi. 

On Thursday the 25th, we visited the local Ikebana Master's Kyoto Machiya Style house, where we learned how to arrange IKEBANA.   We made 4 groups of 3 and arranged flowers along with what we learned from the master.

On Friday the 26th, though it was raining because of a typhoon approaching, we visited Sanjusangendo, where 1001 statues of Buddha of Mercy were standing.

On Saturday, we visited Osaka Castle and Houkoku Shrine by Keihan Railway.

On Sunday, we had a chance to enjoy Lake Biwa Boat Cruizing with a nice breeze.

On Monday, the 29th, we went to the Arashiyama area where we walked through the Bamboo Forest.
