Updates galore!!

Umemotosan, our kimono hostess for the day, met Ray at the gym and since then has "adopted" him, bringing him gifts on holidays and always being utmost loving and friendly.
She invited Dacia and I over to her house to dress us in her grandmother's kimonos, and we had the most wonderful time.  She is charming!  She ended up gifting us with several of her grandparents silk kimonos and yukatas.  What an honor...






Our first wonderful kimono experience. We walked up to Miidera Temple for some nice photos...









Toji Temple Markets.  One of the largest flea markets I have ever been to...





Dacia's first delicious sushi making experience (minus the raw stuff!!) - SO YUMMY!!
