'Gal mikoshi'

Hi, everyone!

Azalea, as I recall it, no woman ran with danjiri at Kishiwada city, just like in other festivals. It’ s also an example for nix women, isn’t it? But I remember a ‘gal mikoshi’ at tenjin matsuri, in Osaka, was parading along a shopping mall, where is called the longest mall in Japan. Those ‘gals’ are singled out from a large number of applicants by a contest. I don’t know it would exist now…

Magnolia, I’ve never read ‘joseino hinkaku’, but your introduction drew my attention.
I admire a woman who can tell a number of flower’s names.

Welcome to our blog, Champagne, and nice to see you.
I’m looking for meet you some day.
(Or, we have already met before?)

Thank you, everyone.
Good night, bye!

Hi, everyone,
Welcome, Champagne.

Cherry, thank you for your responding to my question. Many Japanese traditional festivals exclude women. One woman once said 'On the festival day, only men can enjoy and drink a sake, on the contrary, women are busy to prepare for banquet and can't enjoy the event. I don't like a festival' In fashion, the festival which men and wemen can equally join is increasingly getting popular. In the near future, except for famous festivals such as Danjiri, it will be difficult to run the men only festival and raise the money.

Today, I went to the library. I don't understand by what viewpoint, the library procures books. They are obsolete, I mean book is obsolete. I feel it is a stock price 10 days ago.

Cosmos, you are funny, but right.

Hello, Cherry and my dear friends.

Welcome to Chery's Blog, Champagne.
I enjoyed reading your message.

I sometimes wonder how long you spent your time and passion writing this Blog. It depends on individual situation or what topics you’re writing about but in my case, I usually put in an hour or so. Do I spend too much time?

I have to go to bed now. Good-night.
