Saturday, May 19 - Kamakura trip

Students headed to Kamakura with Japanese students from Senshu University. 

I didn't join any groups this time. I met a couple of groups on the way.



I went to Have Temple to see Hydrangea but it was too early toes full blooms. 


Somehow, I always take same photos every year. This is my favourite Jizo in Hase temple. 

 I walke to Hase to Kamakura this time and found out this soba restaurant.
This is a starter plate. 
This is Main meal - Soba and Tempura.

Eno den - train runs through Kamakura. It is a single truck train. 

At Kamakura station, I went into a large souvenir shop. He gave me very nice sample soup.
 "Where are you from?" He asked.
I said, "I am from Canada."

He started singing "Love letter from Canada.' that is one of most popular songs in 1978.
- you can still sing at Karaoke. 


We had a chat and I said that I would head to the Odakyu Line,  Mukogaokayuen station.
Then he said, "Oh, I went up the hill every day, long time ago. It was tiring."

😳

Well, he was a first group of students who studied in the Ikuta Campus of Senshu University. 
It was 1971.
It was an interesting day.

It is hard to believe that the program came to end today. All students attended the completion ceremony with Yukata on. ...
