Saga Castle and Tea Ceremony

Some of the ALTs were invited to participate in a tea ceremony at the Saga castle. We all had a chance to dress up but there was only princess costume. The lucky chosen one…..me! I have to admit when I had the headpiece on I didn’t feel so lucky. However, I learned that the headpiece is worth thousands of dollars because it is part of the castle museum. I have never taken so many pictures with people I haven’t met before. The cultural experience was incredible! The tea ceremony wasn't anything like I thought it would be. I had to learn quickly since there were many people watching!
