Anthurium, Light and Shadow

I bought a pot of anthurium about one month ago.
It has been showing beautiful flowers since then. I like seeing it at the time of sunset.
Isn't is beautiful?

Utsunomiya Castle Park / Castle Ruins Park

Leaves are turning red or yellow at Utsunomiya Castle Park.
I went to the park to take some snapshots today.
No doubt, we are in the middle of autumn season.

What Does the Number 753 Stand for in Japan?

The number 753, seven five three, has a special meaning in Japan.

Three and seven year-old girls and three and five year-old boys get a celebration on the nearest weekend around November 15.
We call the day 753, Shichi-Go-San in Japanese.

Children were dressed up in their best clothes and held a ceremony of purification at a local shrine.

Lion dance known as Shishi-Mai in Japanese is performed at the Futarasan shirne.

Kikusui-sai Autumn Festival

Kikusui-sai autumn festival was held in the city center last Saturday and Sunday.

I took these pictures on Saturday.

They must have had a traditional Japanese Yabusame or a horseback mounted archery on Sunday.

Unfortunately, I did not have time to see them yesterday.

Day by day, it becomes cooler in Utsunomiya.

Rina, my younger daughter, is preparing for her college exams which are scheduled to be held in coming February.

She still has more three to four months. In another words, we have only several months to live together.

Definitely, she'll leave us and go to Tokyo for her college.
To think about it makes me more cooler.

Far East Kitchen

The other day, I went to a cafe 'Far East Kitchen' with my wife.
It took about fifteen minutes from home on foot.

 I ordered an "Omurice" or a rice omelet with curry sauce.

The food, ketchup-seasoned fried rice wrapped in a thin sheet of fried egg,  is very famous in Japan.

My wife  ordered a chestnut spaghetti and  sweets.
Each food looked nice, so was the taste.
