Totally Tokyo

Sake-to-me!

So Temple's Sponsored field trips are in full swing. Friday nigth was sake testing, yes, sponsored by school. It was good times. They had also a couple of amazing performances. A Shimisen player (tradition japanese instrument) which was breathtaking and I am so glad that I got to experince something like that (he played through out the entire soundtrack of 'Crouching Tiger Hidden Drago'). And Japanese dancers and a rap group, a dj and a spoken word artist. Also, there were japanese watercolor and word poem artist that would make you a piece on their emotions at that moment. I got a piece, and it is beautiful. On top of that we were lectured about the origin of sake and what makes a good sake, etc. I am now educated responsibily in the field of sake and I can pull some nice facts out sometime we are enjoying a glass with it. But until then, here are some pictures:






From the Future,
