The fourth grade students in the elementary school in Fukui have a tour to visit one or two of the traditional crafts villages in the prefecture; pottery, lacquerware, nife and WASHI. 

I've just got here today to check my emails ( I don't use computers at home ) and saw a lot of umbrellas hung outside of the entrance. No wonder the kids were here. 

Ms. Yamada of Udatsu was explaining them what materials for papermaking were used holding up the bark of gampi and kozo.
