host family's day

The weather was very fine today.We went to Kyoto (Nagaokakyo-City). At first we visited my parents' house and ate lunch. My mom made some delicious rice balls for us. After that, we went to "Nagaoka Tenmanguu shrine, it is said that this shrine is the god of learning. There were not so many people because this is the normal season now. There was a large pond and there were many carps and turtles. It was a nice view. There was a Japanese traditional restaurant which is named "Kinsuitei." My mom told me that this is used as a drama many times.The other day, the Japanese emperor came. It is not very popular, but it is known as a good place.

After we came back to my mom's house, we returned to my city by using highway. It was a little crowded.
When we came back home, I noticed that it was colder than Kyoto. My mother in law cooked delicous dinner for us.We enjoyed eating dinner! My students are both vegetarian.I enjoy eating vegetable recipe.
They took so many pictures. I enjoyed today very much.
