Weekend trip to Nara
The students had an overnight trip to Nara prefecture this weekend. Nara is famous for their deer roaming the streets and the Great Buddha statue. The students had a great time seeing the deer bow and feeding them cookies. Afterwards they had a guided tour of the statue which is in a UNESCO world heritage site. Overnight they enjoyed staying outside in onsen(hot springs) and singing their hearts out at Karaoke.
