June 6th. Gion

 Well here it is June 6th. D-day to most people in the USA. A time of true sacrifice by men, young men, who gave up their lives to fight a tyrant trying to destroy freedom. May it never happen again and lets hope their sacrifice was not done In vain. 

For us a lazy day. No-one wanted to go on the Katsura Imperial tour so we didn’t. Patricia and Jonah we t to wash clothes and Mary Ann and I mailed more stuff home to avoid additional charges on the flight to Korea. 

Mary Ann and I did go to Gion, but mostly to shop. I did take a couple of minutes to see the shrine there. 





And we saw them making candy. 





I actually have a video of a different candy maker whose wares we actually bought. 


And then to the ramen shop I had visited with an earlier group and Mary Ann hadn’t been with us. 



We went home after that and had plans to go to listen to some live jazz at a spot we were at last night, but Mary Ann took a nap and wouldn’t wake up so we didn’t. 

Goodnight
