"Summer Memories / Yuichi Saito"

Everyone, Hello!

The other day, in Kyoto, Gozan no Okuribi and finally felt the end of summer.
Today I would like to look back on those summer memories!
If you don't mind, please stay with me until the end.

Mitarasure Festival
Actually for the first time. The cold spring water was very pleasant on a sunny midsummer day.
I lit a candle and prayed for a good health.

When will you fireworks? The fireworks after a long time have a taste
I remembered when I was a kid.
Fireworks as an adult are also good!

Personally speaking of summer, Yukata.
I'm looking forward to wearing it every year, and when I tie an obi, I get excited!

And Gozan no Gozan no Okuribi
When this is over, summer is over and autumn is finally here.

By experiencing traditional seasonal events and customs in this way, you can feel Transition of seasons.
I thought it would be nice to be in Japan again.
This year, we were not able to see Gozan no Okuribi in person, but we were able to see it via live streaming.
SOU・SOU style Gozan no Okuribi provided everyone with a taste of Kyoto and was also a fun experience for me personally.

At SOU・SOU the autumn atmosphere is gradually emerging.
After changing clothes, I am fascinated by new autumn products, and I am excited to have lots of fun in the future.

Thank you for reading to the end.
Please tell us your summer memories again.
