This weekend, we went on a weekend trip to Matsushima.
it was fun. We enjoyed it very much! It's Matsushima! It's famous for being one of the 3 beautiful scenaries in Japan. It was beautiful and historical,too. When you visit Matsushima, you must visit Zuiganji, closely related to Japanese historical characters such as Basho Matsuo and Masamune Date. It had very grave atomosphere which was very impressive to us. When we visited the history museum, we learned that hiroro's family ancestors were samurais for Masamune Date's clan. By the way, my ancestors were samurais for Mitsuhide Akechi's clan. These very closely related historical facts made us bit impressed. When we go on our trips, we always buy local sake as a souvenir for ourselves. We happen to drop by at a liquor store in Matsushima. We enjoyed talking about sake with the owner of the liquor store and the owner took a liking of us very much. He told us to come back to Matsushima in the winter, then he will be able to introduce us to the local Sake makers. Now we are drinking the sake that we had bought and eating sasakama. It's great!
Today, I'm too tired to show the photos of Matsushima, but I'll update my photos soon!
