  3. Hallo dear Miyako. Once again, you are sharing your country's traditions and festivals with us. They do seem to be very important to your country and rightly so. It is so good to see that these traditions are continuing to be upheld. What beautiful, colourful photos, and I love the little collage. Always a pleasure to pop by to see you dear friend. Hugs x

  7. Wow omikoshi look great! And the dragon is amazing! So gorgeous. What a fun to see all of them moving through the city! I sure miss omatsuri in Japan.
    I forgot Tsuyu is coming to Japan soon! It will be very jime jime... :-( I hope Tsuyu passes by quickly!
