Hi, Friends!
(1)
On February third, the Ebisu festival was
held at our local small shrine.
This festival is to pray for happiness and
business success and it is very popular
Bamboo is strong and supple, so it’s represented as a symbol of prosperity.

This familiar young Miko stands on a stage,
handing out lucky bamboo branch to all the visitors, one by one.

For many years, my mother-in-law 97 used to walk 10 minutes to the shrine for this festival
with her close neighbors. Now she prefers staying at our home rather than going.
Even though we are not a particularly religious family, my husband and I still go to this event
instead of her and we enjoy it.

Such a lovely smile! I always like this Miko san.
Five-minutes drive takes me to this museum.
The Ume trees in the garden have just started flowering.
Every spring, the museum has a free entry,which reminds me that spring has arrived.
The many locals enjoy the free entry this time of the year,seeing ume flowers. But sadly, the weather
was fairy cold and windy on the day, February seventh.There were only a few visitors.
