The Last Tea Ceremony

This tea ceremony certainly shows us the culmination of what we've learned about making tea for others and about having tea made for us. Gunji-sensei performed the tea ceremony for us, with Daniel as the main guest. We properly bowed to one another, sat respectfully, and gave our full attention while the tea was being made. Many of us missed some part of the cleaning up since we went to whisk tea for our classmates and then served them. All the movements at the end are reduced by one less stroke. So, instead of cleaning the chashaku three times, Gunji-sensei only cleaned it twice.
