Japan's Labor day


Today is Japan's Labour day. It gives us a time for a family to have a brigade-march to Zenkoji Temple as some activities are set in there.
But the main temple is under maintenance renovation as if, although it is open for thousands of tourists and faithfuls today. It becomes our family picture-taking this time. Joseph and I alternated in taking the shots. The smaller castle type temples are also so good to look and they have variteis of looks and activities inside. It looks that every smaller temple has its god or goddess. I guess.
But the winter coldness that drops to 7 degrees today slammed my rhinitis since this morning. I have to endure.
The man-made hill slide was the major fun of the kids aside from the stage plays in the place.
Mine was the cultural and landscape beauty of the place. The cultured potted-flower-plants are so good in its form and shape, colors and looks. Monks are great in it.
I hope to have more litreature of the Zenkoji and the fate of it.
Ken rou kan sha as they call it, its holiday and the time gives the family a little time to bond for more.
