On Tuesday the 30th, we went to "BUTOKUDEN," where everyone had a chance to learn and practice Kendo with the wooden sword and the traditional bamboo sword (SHINAI). Through this practice, everyone learned the Japanese Politeness and how to sit down and stand up.
On Wednesday, July 1st, we met near the Silver Pavilion and walked along Philosopher's Path (Tetsugaku no Michi) to reach Nyakuoji Shrine, which is managed by Shingo's acquaintance.
On Thursday the 2nd, we went to the local Kyoto traditional dyeing workshop (Kyo-yuzen), where everyone made his or her own drawstring bag.
