Hochner Family Blog

Well, if you have kids, you most probably know what school vacations means. Yes, we just had two weeks of total family time together, and went to Bali and Java first, then we went for a little weekend on the other side of Japan, near Kanazawa, on the Japanese sea coast. I managed to catch a cold just before coming back home and this explains the long silence.We will catch up during the next few days.

During these three weeks, we managed to do quite a few things. Here are the next few posts we will working on.

Making Japanese dolls 

Akiko has joined a few French ladies and started to learn how to make some of these beautiful dolls by herself. Quite interesting.  

Bali / Java 

Borobudur
 

Houshi is the oldest Ryokan in Japan. It has been welcoming travelers for the last 1,300 years, and is being taking care by the same family for 46 generation. It was an incredible experience, mainly because being members of the owner’s family (by Akiko’s mother side) we were especially well treated.

Eating Echizengani Crabs in Mikuni (Fukui)

And last, we visited the Eiheiji Zen Temple in Fukui.
