On July 8th

Tomoko showed a family from USA to Nara. We visited Kasuga grand shrine, then we walked to Nigatsu do hall of Todaiji,

I talked about Omizu tori  event in Nigatsu-do hall and they enjoyed the scenery of Nara from there. As we had reservation for lunch, we skipped Todaiji temple and had lunch first.

We had sushi wrapped by persimmon leaf called Kakinoha sushi. 

After lunch, we visited Todaiji temple. The boy enjoyed feeding deer.

It was extreamly hot and humid day, we made our tour time shorter. We only had time to visit one more place. So we chose Koshi-no- ie from three scheduled places. 

It was inside of the house and at the kitchen, we saw a big torch there, as I talked about the torch of Omizutori event, they were surprised how big it was.
