Chestnuts! Day Six.

Today we left the house around noon and visited a museum about how Japanese people have used light over time. After we went to a restaurant where they serve their local specialty of rice with chestnuts. It was so good! After lunch we visited a museum of Hokusai's woodblock paintings, like his very famous one of the tsunami wave. We walked though the cute little tourist village and then drove to the Ganshoin Temple where Hokusai painted the huge bird painting on the ceiling. Haha! I remember walking though the temple and my mom saying "there are monkeys so if you see one don't pay any attention to it or it will attack." Mireya and I then really wanted to see if a monkey would come out but non did. :/ it was soooo hot, we must have past by five ice cream or shaved ice stands. Back at home it started raining and it still is! But at least it makes it a little cooler!
