Delicious lunch with soba noodles, sashimi, and tempura!

Garden tour before our tea cermony in Shokado Garden, Kyoto.

Trying out some more Japanese cuisine!

Enjoying some sweets and tea during a Japanese Tea Ceremony! Sitting in seiza style for the whole ceremony proved challenging.

Students at the Shoin Junior High School in Osaka taught us how to make dessert (and a few new Japanese phrases!)

A big thanks to the fantastic staff, students, and translators for a truly unique experience learning about culture, cuisine and language!
