“Holidays, these days/Shingo Yoshida”

Around the end of last year, I returned to my hometown of Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture.
Since it is the hometown of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the main character of the 2023 Taiga drama, you can visit the drama museum that was open for Time Limited.

There is (probably) no one who doesn't know about it in Okazaki! Enjoy the local experience by eating Taiyaki from Heitaro.
In the background, there is an incident with my father's taiyaki who is absorbed in watching TV!? lol


Returning to Kyoto, this is now a standard Kyoto souvenir! It is no exaggeration to say that the facilities of "Kyoto Baum"
``Atelier Kyoto Baum'' has opened in my neighborhood again.

Inside, you can enjoy freshly made baam and coffee.

You can see everything from standard sweets to limited edition sweets and how they are made.

At Itoken / SOU・SOU Kiyomizu Store, you can enjoy classic Japanese skewered sweets and your favorite amazake!

At the beginning of the year, visit the nearby Rokusono Shrine,

A short visit to Kyoto's oldest shrine, Matsuo Taisha, is a short walk away.

A lot has happened since the beginning of the year, and I don't know what will happen in the future.
Let's look up like a climbing dragon and make it a good year!

Thank you for reading my recent holiday diary till the end!
See you soon.
