HANAWA-BASHI FESTIVAL 2015

I had happened to know this Hanawa-bashi festival an hour before the festival started.
I wished I could know this event earlier, so I could announce to the folks who are on my friend list on the SNS.



Not only they were showing the demonstrations of the taiko drums, traditional dance, karate, aikido, etc..(as you can see on the video on above,) but also they offered the free foods, such as the cakes from Nishino-ya bakery, curry rice from Curry-tei, gyoza, BBQ, cotton candy, and so on for the people who came to visit there.


Free cakes offered by Nishino-ya bakery in Miyako. 
  

Japanese traditional dance demonstration


Many people came to enjoy the shows and the foods


They had the motorcycles for the test drive too. 
I wanted to ride on them, but they did not let me because I did not have the driver's license for the motorcycles.  I had Honda Shadow 750 when I was in US.  All I needed to ride on the motorcycle there was the car drivers' license, but not in Japan.  Too bad.
I could have rode on the back seat of the motorcycle with the rider guy, but no.  
I would be happy to ride with rider gal though.
     
     
The yuru-chara of Miyako city, Salmon-kun and Miyako-chan were there too to promote themselves for the Yuru-chara Grand Prix.  
Please vote for them from the link below if you love Miyako city.  Thanks!!  
      
    
It was fun, and I hope I can come back for the next one too.

I got banned from facebook AGAIN for a week.

Facebook banned me of posting and sharing on timeline, sending messages, and like button for any post for a week.  Right now, what I can do on facebook is only to login.            I asked what I did wrong to get banned to the help desk, but they have not replied me anything yet.    What I did right before I had got banned was re-activating one of my pages about discussing the differences between the facts and the fake news on fake medias.        Well, these are my new pages:    Please give your "like" on my pages.  You will be receiving tons of update (since those pages are updated by bots) from the pages, but you can hide them too.      

The Coffee Vending Machine

   When I was buying a cup of coffee from the vending machine, it made a big sound and shook itself a little.  It sounded like somebody inside hit his/her head somewhere there.  I was so curious but I was not brave enough to peep inside the machine because I had a feeling that if I peep inside, he or she inside would be attacking my eyes.   

Hospital Day (6)

I was about to get back to my work, then the English teacher company called me again said "hey, Ito.  You have time?  We got the English teacher who need to go to the hospital."  I was like      I thought they were joking.   But neither they were joking nor I was in the movie.  So, this time, I was taking the male English teacher to the hospital.  He got black toe nail and other finger nails were turning into black color too, but he did not remember he hit anything with his toe or his shoes had been too tight.   The doctor was examining his toes, however, he could not find what had caused his toe nails turned into black color.    So, the doctor took the nail file and started filing English teacher's toe nail.   Guess what?  The color just came off!!    He did not have to take any medicine, but he had to pay for the examining  That cost him about 2,500 yen.   ...
