TOKYO — I told you guys I’d take you along on as much of my trip to Japan as I could, so here goes.
While the Cubs and Dodgers flew back stateside late Wednesday night, I’m staying in Japan until Monday to see more of this beautiful country.
Thursday morning, some friends and I went to a traditional tea ceremony, where you learn a bit about the history of such ceremonies and where they’re held, and then learn how to do it yourself.
