Wonderful day in Nagasaki with Armondo

We had the most fabulous day in Nagasaki with the enthusiastic and knowledgable guide Armondo! He showed us all around his city, answering our questions in perfect English and all with a sense of humor. He was quick to adapt to our interests, and set up a fun calligraphy session in a temple for us to attempt the Japanese characters. It was a super day thanks to him!
