Japanese Festival

So being in one of the largest cities in México, one of the advantages is the multiculturalism--and I´m not just talking Méxican culture. The local university actually hosted a two-day Japanese Festival this last week!

At the festival, I saw a tea ceremony, some dances, and participated in a True / False game about Japan. It turns out that Japan and México have had relations for the last 400 years!!



I also had the chance to brush up on my calligraphy skills, writing two kanji characters with a brush. Here is my turnout for the character for water. Ignore the fact that they gave us a hardcopy to trace...
