"I've never been to a local tourist attraction before," my mother said, and this photo was taken when I traveled to my hometown. The retro advertisement on the ceiling of the theater was very cute. There were many people shooting from directly below the ceiling, but when I looked at it from various angles, the contrast between red and blue was beautiful, so I shot from diagonally below. When I learned that there was such a precious and wonderful building in my hometown, I fell in love with the local area even more. There are not many left this year, but I want to go on a trip with my mother again.

I thought this was a really nice article and video. I hadn't heard about Utase ships or Utase fishing before. I mentioned the other day in a post about the Edo-Tokyo Museum how I really liked seeing the architecture of the ships and just happened to come across this today. I love how you can see a full broadside view of the ship and its sails. Apparently there are a bunch of different varieties of sails and different numbers used depending on the size, etc. of the ship. I've never had the opportunity to go to Kumamoto sadly, but I'd like to see this in action if I get the chance. I've seen a lot of photos of Kumamoto Castle as well, so that's definitely something I'd be checking out if I visited. I'd like to do it in the spring to see the cherry blossoms as well.
