Kyoto

Getting to downtown Kyoto is not far, maybe 45 minutes away. But getting around Kyoto is a different story. Buses are the way to get around, so we hitched a ride to get to The Golden Pavilion (金閣寺), made our way to lunch, then visited Ryoanji, certainly Japan's most famous Rock Garden.






Had to share this moment of Kyrie Irving (elite NBA baller) and our very own Basketball baller (elite Japanese speaker) both in meditation at the same spot, about two weeks apart. Thanks for playing along, AD.




Kinkakuji, The Golden Pavilion. If you have a chance, read the book by Yukio Mishima.


Ryoanji:


We ate lunch, sent some cards, and headed to make kumihimo.


See this in some more detail in the upcoming magazine!

A few more from the day...



The last week has come, and students are busy! Getting ready for the Farewell show, writing Thank you letters to the host families, making pages for the Osaka Magazine, and studying for a Final test! That's next!
