Tea ceremony performance
Flower arrangement
We went to Mt. Coot-tha today with our friends to experience Japanese culture.
I wanted to see Urasenke style tea ceremony; I was curious how different Urasenke style is from Edo senke style which I am currently learning. We also wanted to try freshly pounded mochi.
As the weather turned out to be very nice, the event was popular with many people.
I enjoyed observing each movements of tea ceremony. The basic is more or less same but how they handle fukusa or chashaku is different.
We had a chance to eat some very fresh and tasty mochi. I haven't had such fresh mochi for a long time.
