Walking around Kyoto (Nagoshi no harae)

This is Maeda
Welcome back to Risshisha.

Every year at the end of june,
'Nagoshinoharae'*) held all over shrine in Japan.

I have been out every year for the last few years,
to the large shrine over the summer at a nearby shrine,
and I went this year as well.

*)Nagoshinoharae is summer passing purification ritual.

Half a year has passed early as this year.
Cleanse the dirt for half a year,
I went through the circle of Kaya*).

*)Kaya is the big circle made from straw.

Kaya is sold for 100 yen
You can make a small ring of kaya yourself.

It is getting hot.

I went on a business trip the other day,
so I taken video of a wind chime at a certain place.
hope it can deliver the cool sound.
