Field Trip to Hita


So today we went on a field trip to an old ninja village hidden deep in the mountains of Kyushu island!...


Ok so it's not really a ninja village, it's actually a pottery town, but ninja village sounds so much cooler don't you think? The town was so peaceful and chill and they specialized in hand made pottery.


It was nifty, I love seeing Japanese style towns like this.



They use the current of the stream to fill up the logs which lift the arms up to pound the clay. So cool! Walking through the town all you hear is the stream rushing by and the echo of clay being pounded.
