SSIP2016-DAY20

SSIP 20日目は、東明学林から鎌倉へ。快晴に恵まれ、とても暑い一日でした! 鶴岡八幡宮や高徳院の鎌倉大仏を観光し、伝統的な精進料理を堪能しました。おみくじを引いたり、美しい庭に感動したりと大いに満喫したようでした。

Even though it was mid-morning, it was hot enough that more than a few students bought ice cream. After that, we stopped for a traditional shojin-ryori meal on the main street of Kamakura, and took a walk up to the Hachimangu shrine.
