Deer with lost leg
Within the premises of Rokuen, there is an area where sick or injured deer are kept and cared for.
Among them are ones that lost their legs in car accidents.
I visited a quiche shop.
Located near Kasuga Taisha Shrine, the shop is a great example of old Japanese folk houses with modern renovation and fantastic atmosphere.
The lunch included a piece of homemade quiche with lots of vegetables and came with a dessert. All so delicious!
