Dougyouretsu is pulling the rope while
beating the drum in festival.
I hear not only the drumbeat but also the
flute sound and the shout of people.
So, this festival is very lively.
This is done every year in October.

Hi Masami,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Quyen Tang, nice to meet you.
As far as festivals in Seattle goes... we have a big annual music festival in September called "Bumbershoot." It's really fun, it lasts 3 days and a lot of people come each year (around 100,000 I think). There are multiple concert stages that people can go to and see artists, comedians, dance groups, etc. perform. There's all kinds of music and all sorts of people so it's really fun to go!
Your hometown sounds like so much fun! Clams are one of my favorite foods actually so I was really excited to hear that your hometown has the best freshwater clams in all of Japan. I'm going to visit Japan this spring so I might have to come and visit your hometown for the food! Those sweets look super cute too!
Hi Quyen Tang.

Hi Masami Ogura,
