キーホルダーの作成とランプシェード作りを体験しました。 色選びの作業からわくわくです。どれくらいの種類があったのでしょう。 もっと熟慮して選べばよかったのですが、時間が気になって感覚でパッと決めてしまい、仕上がりは少しイメージと違っていて。。。でも仕上げをしてくださった女性がめちゃくちゃかわいい、と言ってくださいました。機織りはあっという間に終わってしまい、ほんとはずっとずっと鶴の恩返しのように織っていたかったです。 ランプシェードは糸巻きするだけですが、糸の色のグラデーションで雰囲気のあるものに仕上がりました。 二つとも大切にします。 また、奏絲綴苑さんが京都らしい路地を入った場所にあり、その街並みもとても素敵で、生活と伝統が上手く調和していることに感激しました。

来日中の外国人と参加しました。英語で案内するツアーもあるとのことで申し込みましたが、この日は日本語のみ。しかし外国人の参加は一人でしたので、本人曰くそれが良かったそうです(^ ^) 紙芝居を使った説明は、イラストもあるので外国人にも伝わります。また、富士山の成り立ちや樹海の歴史、森ができるまでのプロセスの説明は、子どもにもわかりやすいと思いました。自由研究の課題を見つけるきっかけや、地質学に興味を持つ機会にもなると思います。 季節を変えて訪れると、違った表情の洞窟が見られるそうです。ちなみに7月でも氷筍を見ることができます。 友人はツアーの間、amazingと何度も言っていて、外国人にも満足の内容と思いました。 洞窟に入る装備は参加費に含まれています。帰りも駅まで送ってくださいました。 樹海と聞くとちょっと躊躇する人もいるかもしれませんが、樹海特有の自然や、洞窟の歴史など、実際に見てみないとこの素晴らしさは理解できないと思います。 ガイドのうたさんのおかげで楽しくリラックスして洞窟体験を楽しむことができました。ありがとうございました!! 河口湖に行くならぜひおすすめのアクティビティです。

今回新婚旅行で西表島に初上陸しました。 元々自分がダイビングやりたくて予約。 前日に確認の電話でホテルロビー前まで何時に迎えにきますと連絡を貰いました。 当日5分前には到着してくれててすんなり合流。今回は自分達夫婦とガイドの高橋さん3人とダイビングライセンス持ちの方々7人とガイドさんでやりますと伝えられボートまで車で行きました。ボート到着後他の人と合流前に機材の取り扱い方やゴーグルの調整などをし、いざ出発。 最初はめちゃくちゃ怖くて呼吸も苦しかったのですが海中で慣れてくると全然大丈夫でした。今回は1日コースで2回ダイビング予定。1回目終わると疲労と眠気が半端なかったです。お昼休憩後に2本目のダイビング。 2回目なのに自分は過呼吸になり、無理かなーと思いましたがガイドの高橋さんのお陰で平常心を取り戻し海中へ。奥さんも合流しサンゴと小魚がいっぱい居る海中を巡りました。2本目で慣れてきたのか呼吸も苦しくなくなりあっという間に終了でした。 終わった後ホテルまで送ってくれてる車内では爆睡でした。笑 また機会があれば参加したいと思いました!
