Yamakita

Tetsuo, the pottery artist (I don't know his name and I only have it written in kanji) and Chiharu in his studio.

Last weekend I went to Yamakita (about an hour from Kochi City) with Chiharu (who works at Hello School) and Tetsuo (a Hello School student). We had such an amazing beautiful time!! Yamakita is famous for it's mikans (Japanese mini-orange) and we were lucky to have a gorgeous day to pick them. Tetsuo's best friend is a pottery artist and has a small studio just walking distance from the mikan field. After we picked mikans, he showed us his work and we made mugs on the potter's wheel and ate a bento that Chiharu prepared! It was such a relaxing great day.
