So, I was partly right that Yuko and Miyamoto were indeed meeting outside a room during their school trip but not in Kyoto - It's in Inaba! By choosing to play as the Heroine, you will visit Inaba two years before Persona 4 and meet Yukiko who is still just a junior high student. This happens late summer during August instead of November...
