How did you spend your tanabata (star festival)?

Did you make a wish on the strips of paper(tanzaku) and hang them on bamboo branches?

Morning glory festival

From 2th-4th July, there was 'Morning glory festival'in Sugamo.

Sugamo1 .jpg

Morning glory is my favorite flower, so I went to Sugamo on Sunday.
During the festival,there were many street stalls and they sold many kinds of food.

Matsuri.jpg
Matsuri2.jpg

We call Morning glory 'Asagao' in japanese.
asagao-blue.jpg
When I was a child, I used to bring up Morning glory in summer.
Every morning I was happy to see that flower bloomed.

They sold many potted Morning glory on the street.
Asagao.jpg
Asagao2.jpg
Unfortunately,I couldn't see flower bloomed because I went there in the afternoon..
Morning glory slept already.

There was Gambare Nippon Asagao,too.Yeah,we'll live strongly like these Asagao...!
Gambare.jpg

Normally,we call Sugamo 'Grandmother's Harajuku',but I think young people and foreigners can also enjoy Sugamo.
The atmosphere is little bit similar to Asakusa.

I went to the temple 'Togenuki Jizo-Son', but on that day, many people were standing in line to polish 'Arai Kannon' by towel.
Gyoretsu.jpg
It is believed like that... If we have pain in our bodies, polish that part of Arai Kannon by towel.After then, we will get well.
If you have a headache, polish the head of Arai Kannon by towel!

Oh...I cannot see Kannon-sama! I had to come next time!
