Wanna Dumpling?!

Last week our guests, a couple from Australia and I had Chinese dumplings for our dinner after cooked together.
It was very nice opportunity and they tasted very delicious! But I couldn't take photos of it unfortunately because I didn't have a memory card in my camera...

If you wanna have some foods of Japanese, you can ask us and them you may be able to eat them in our hostel after cooking together!!?

Hatsu Kobo Shrine Market

Every month on the 21st a huge market called Kobo-san which is related to the famous monk, Kobo Daishi, is held at Toji temple. Hatsu Kobo means the first shrine market of the year and about 1,200 stalls will be open and many people will come to enjoy them.

You can easily get to the temple from our hostel, so you should definitely visit there!! It must be very interesting!!!
