Happy New Year.
On New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, I stayed at Kusamakura. It is the base of the book ,Kusamakura, written by Soseki Natsume. I stayed in a rental house with my relatives. In the days, I was very enjoyable and too slept. On New Year's Day, we went to pay the first visit of the year to shrines. We went to the Kawachi-Aso Shrine, the Kawachi-Inari Shrine, and the Funadsu-Itsukushima Shrine.
At Kawachi-Aso Shrine, I could see the Shinto Dancing. There is usually a offertory box at the front of a shrine, but, at the shrine, there is not the offertory box at the front of the shrine and it was in the shrine. Also, some people were in the shrine and waited for visitor. There are some children and a Shinto priest. I opened the door and entered into the shrine. I made a money offering. Then, one of the children danced for me and the priest beat a drum. I could exorcise and get a strap made of ceramic. The strap is shaped a snake because this is the year of the Snake in Chinese astrology. However, I have one thing I regret. It is my money offering. I made a money offering only 10 yen! I didn't expected such treatment, so I made cheap money offering... I regret very much. If I will go there next year, I'll make more money offering.
Funadsu-Itsukushima Shrine didn't have special, but Kawachi-Inari Shrine was very special. It was on the top of small mountain. I went up the stairs and visit the shrine through a lot of torii. There was not any people. The right picture was taken at the stairs to visit shrine. It was not clear because of taking on my cell phone, but you can see how high it is. The view was very beautiful and it was very interesting shrine. To visit the shrine was a little hard but worth.
