Happy old new year?!

Good morning to the World and Kanmon!

A guest came here to see the traditional event on the new year day of old luna calendar. So I went there to take some pictures.

We celebrate both new year days of new and old calendar with fireworks. Special religious service starts after sacred dance and fireworks on old calendar’s new year day.

We want guests from the countries which celebrate new year of luna calendar come to see this traditional and divine event as used to be (before COVID-19).

Thank you and you have a nice day no matter new calendar or old calendar.

ひかりのはる / Spring of Sunshine

Spring of Sunshine

Good morning to the World and Kanmon!

Since “Risshun (=start of spring in Japanese seasonal calendar)”, we have had comparably good weather in Kanmon area.

However wind is still cold. Elegant traditional Japanese call this time of a year, Spring of Sunshine.

Recently we still have sunlight even around 5:30pm. So we want to enjoy the sunlight as much as possible.

It seems that temperature will go up in the latter half of a week, staring today. Real spring will come here, won’t it?

Thank you and you have a nice day, being strong in cedar pollen.

ひかりのはる

世界中に朝が、そして関門にもあさが来ました。
おはようございます。

立春後の関門エリアは比較的良い天気が続いています。

でも風はまだ冷たくて、そんなこの時期を「光の春」というそうです。

すでにこのあたりでは夕方5:30ぐらいまで明るくなってきていて、ひかり、、、満喫したいですね。

今日からの週後半は気温も上がるらしくて、春本番でしょうか?

それでは、スギ花粉ニモマケズ素敵な一日を!

春よ来い! / We are all expecting spring will come!

We are all expecting spring will come!

Good morning to the World and Kanmon!

On the day of “RISSHUN (=beginning of Spring), here Kanmon area was surrounded by cold winter northwest wind.

Sky was clear but wind was that of winter.

It might show the situation of this country.
We are all expecting bright and clean spring will come and blow money in politics. As the result we hope reliable measures will be executed against COVID-19 pandemic.

Number of dead people by infection exceeded 6,000, as of yesterday which must be happy day as the start of spring. Nobody knows when vaccination will begin in Japan and Japanese people are suspicious/worry about operation of our government.

On the day of RISSHUN, I personally expected that dark cloud of dishonesty above CHUGOKU area*, the other side of the strait, will be blown by coming spring.

Thank you and you have a nice day, keeping honesty toward the sunlight.

春よ来い!

世界中に朝が、そして関門にもあさが来ました。
おはようございます。

立春の2月3日、関門エリアは冷たい冬の北西風に包まれていました。

Exif_JPEG_PICTURE

空は晴れているのに、風は未だ冬。

まるでこの国の状況を表しているようです。
未だ渦巻く政治とカネの問題が春一番に吹き飛ばされた後に、信頼のおける感染対策の花が咲くのが待たれます。

うれしいはずの春の始まりに日本国内の感染による死者は6000人を超えました。
感染対策では、いつワクチンの接種が始まるのかも分からず、日本国民は不安で仕方がありません。

いっそ対岸の中国地方にモヤッとかかる不誠実な雲も晴れわたらないかなと考える立春でした。

それでは、お天道様に顔向けできる素敵な一日を!
