Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. I’ve dreamed of going to Kyoto and participating in a Japanese Tea Ceremony for many years. Have a wonderful day!

Thanks for describing a beautiful tea ceremony here. There is so much art involved in the ritual. I like how you describe it to be hypnotic and meditative. Evelyn Limâ€™s last blog post..From Outer to Inner Space

@BunnygotBlog re-reading it makes me want to be there again I’m glad others can find it enjoyable even as a merely description. If you have the chance to participate in a tea ceremony, I highly encourage you to do it.
