Nagano Field Trip

Our first field trip was a few weeks ago and it was to Nagano. We stayed there for 4 days and 3 nights! It was one of my best experiences! The staff planned out all the events nicely and we were all able to soak in everything!
The events included making Soba noodles, making tea cups, visiting shrines and castles, picking apples, and VISITING A MONKEY ONSEN!
Let me just show you:

In the process of making the soba noodles!! It was VERY tiring but luckily we had 4 people per group to make it!

Food just tastes that much better when you make it yourself!! It was really really delicious. The sauce/soup they gave us was soooo good and in the end, we mixed warm water into the soup and it tasted like heaven. No joke!

This is one of the shrines we visited. One interesting thing that we did was that…we walked inside this PITCHED BLACK hall [we basically had to feel the wall all the way to the end] and in the process, we were also told to look for a key that will…uhh give you good luck. I went twice and did NOT find it!

The highlight of the trip for me!! Aren’t they just the cutest things!? I just want to take one home with me.

This was fun too! We were taught how to make tea cups and they’ll send them to us when they’re glazed and ready. =) I can’t wait to receive mine! 
And by the end of the trip, I ended up buying quite a bit of souvenirs! And I don’t regret it! I love them all!
