Omicho to Higashi Walk - Yuji was very friendly and gave solid insight covering Kanezawa during our rainy walk from Omicho Market to the Higashi Chaya District. His details covering the craftsmanship of Kanezawa pottery and gold leaf were thoughtful as was his suggestions for local sake. It is always a pleasure to have extra company.
