Today, I attended the Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine Monthly Festival. Today is the last day of the Enmusubi wind chime. The red thread wind chime is also a sight to behold.

Around Spring of this year, my father and mother and I Outbound to Nara. I was usually aware that I was being raised by a good couple, but on this day, we were both in a very good mood, probably because it was the yellowtail first time in a long time that we were traveling with three people. I took a lot of pictures as usual on this day, but this was the first time I took a picture for my mother! I think I was asked. I took a two-shot photo of my mother and father. Both my mother and father are shy people, so I can't put them on social media or show them to anyone, but they are carefully displayed at the entrance of my house. As a daughter, I think that such a place brings out the character of the two of them, and they are a very cute couple. This photo is a rare photo that both of my parents complimented. They don't always show any particular interest in photography, and since we both have completely different sensibilities, they rarely compliment us together. However, this photo is displayed on the TV stand as a favorite. My No. 1 memory of Spring this year is this.

The Shirakami Mountains are a World Heritage Site. It is a mysterious forest with untouched primeval beech forests. The light shining through the dense forest was beautiful and seemed to point the way. It is also said to be the stage of Princess Mononoke.
