A HAPPY NEW YEAR♪♪

Hello, my friends :)!

How did you spend your New year's Eve ??

I had a great time with my family and friends and enjoyed Japanese traditional New year's dishes.

By the way, this picture is in the shrine in Nagano prefecture. (Right is my friend. Left is Me!)

Do you know what we wear in this picture?

These are called "hakama", one of the Japanese Kimono styles and the costume for a maiden in the service of a "Shinto" shrine.
I wore this costume when I worked at there!!




Second pisture is outside of the same Nagano shrine, my work place ;)
"護国神社(ごこくじんじゃ)"








In general, many Japanese visit to pay homage and wish ambitions for Buddha there at the new year's eve.
It's Japanese cultural custom, and also First Big Event in the year!!
