Japanese Tea Ceremony...


So, last week a few of the girls and I got to experience a traditional Japanese tea ceremony.  There is tea room in Ginza that caters to foreigners that are hoping to just experience the ceremony, but in a language they understand.  My Japanese teacher recommended it and we had the best time.  I must say I doubt I would ever have enough sophistication to pull off a tea ceremony.  There are certain ways to do everything including entering and leaving the room and certain things that you are supposed to say.  We had a great time and the hostess was so wonderfully instructive and helpful.  Here are a few pictures to give you a bit of an idea.  



Until next time...Jenn
