今年のお正月は良いお天気が続いてとても気持ちがいいですね。

三が日通して着物でお出かけをしました。久しぶりの帯結びは要領を得ず四苦八苦。三日目に漸く手順よく着付けることができました。

一日は愛宕神社、二日は皇居の一般参賀、三日目は地元の大鳥神社です。やっぱり着物は良いですね。

Fabulous weather through New Year days in Japan. Feeling relaxed. I put on Kimono and went out during first 3days of this year. Girded KIMONO - OBI after a great deal of puzzling. I wonder when it was the last time to put on Kimono actually. Finished in an accustomed way about 20 – 30 min on the third New Year’s day. First of January, visited Atago-Shrine. Second of January, visited Imperial Palace for New Year Greeting. Third of January, visited Otori-Shrine which locates near my flat. Kimono is the great Japanese culture. I like it.
