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.

Blogs and AdSense (2)

Blogs and AdSense http://itoshunsuke.blogspot.jp/2015/07/blogs-and-adsense.html When I see my Adsense page today, I see some numbers!! *Yay* Last time I open this page after years about 10 days ago, I found that I had made only 78 yen, and other numbers on the list were zero yen. But now, I see "+224 yen!!" This is GOOD. I will donate whatever I make from my blogs to the city of Miyako. Then, hopefully the city of Miyako will let people know by saying "The blogger, Ito Shunsuke, from Miyako has donated 10,000 yen!!" on city paper. So, I will get more traffic, and it will make even more money. Then, I probably can donate 100,000 yen next year, and 1,000,000 yen for the following year, so on. When it reach to 10,000,000 yen, I will say *LOL*

Portals in Miyako (1)

By playing INGRESS, the smartphone game, sometime it takes me to the places of cultural significance, such as public art, landmarks, monuments, etc. where I have never been or seen even in Miyako, my hometown. 　 I have been taking some pictures of those portals, so I would like to introduce them briefly with map link. Some of them are not registered as the portals yet, but I had sent the request to INGRESS when I took the pictures. 1. Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park) [Portal Requesting Now] Map: https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP This park had opened in June 4th in 1993. You can walk not only behind the water fall, but also in the water with bear foot. So, it's nice place to "chill out" literally. 2. Suijin-hi (Stele of the Water God) [Portal] Map: https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP Next to the Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park,) there is Miyako Water Line Management Office. When this Office opened, they made this stele. In front of thi...
