Day 6 July 11

Day 6 July 11 was ultimately just awesome, in Nancy words.

While included in Day 5, the Myazuma Gorge was great fun. (Sorry Sandra if your son's jump from the falls elicited any fear. Safety was foremost and the direction was always, "Land on your feet!") And as indicated in that post, we headed later in the day to learn to play the Japanese banjo, the shaymisen, and some percussion sticks, zenidaiko.








Enjoy the video of our collective, Japanese-American band that is presented below.



Next, we headed to The Viking, a true Japanese hibatchi Smorgasbord.








That's all for now. Up early today and headed to Kyoto before 7. Look for more later. Thanks.

  2. Hi Z and TNSM family of friends!
    Anxious to see the video of the band! So good to be able to follow what you are up to each day! I can't wait to see all the pictures and hear all the stories! We miss you here but can really tell just how much fun you are having! And i'll bet you have made some great new friends, too! Have you learned some of their language too? Hope your cameras are coming back loaded!!
    Love to all, Ziah's Nana
