May 27th and 28th

Noriko and Tomoko showed a couple from New Zealand around our city.

Noriko took them to Otsukemono lunch at Nishiri, then showed them around Kiyomizu temple and the path from the temple.

By chance, they saw a newly-wed in wedding comstumes have photos taken at Yasaka -koshindo. They visit Yasaka shrine and Gion, too. They had Yakitori dinner together.

On May 28th, Tomko showed them around Nijo castle, Ginkakuji temple. Then we had lunch at Yakiniku donburi at Naritaya.

After lunch we visited Kinkakuji temple and Ryoanji temple before visiting Nishijin texitle center. In Nijo castle, we saw gardeners cutting pine tree leaves one by one. As they like to take care of their garden, they say it with much interest.

We hope they enjoyed the time with us.
