nobori in japanese means climb, so its a climbing kiln! japanese lesson of the day

my sensei was a little bumed out that i wont be able to make it, but im super happy that he didnt forget me! i can officially say japanese ppl are the worst huggers in the world. my teacher almost slapped my back silly!
