The rest of the group went on a tour to a village in the mountains so Jeff and I had the day to leisurely explore Kanazawa. The hotel was located near an historic samurai neighborhood known as the Naga-machi Buke Dashiki District.  We walked a few blocks to see the houses which were open to the public.  Ashigaru Shiryokan Museum:
