Today is some kind of religious festival in Japan. Near the hotel, there’s a temple. A lot of people went there to pray this morning. They buy some kind of religious artifact. There’s a place where people dump the artifact. Don’t know what it all means. Outside along the streets, there’s a Japanese pasar malam – almost all food only.
I went to Harajuku and Yoyogi Park today. Unfortunately, didn’t see any Harajuku kids (they dress outrageously and dance on the street there), probably because it’s not a Sunday. Still, the place was really crowded. There’s a shrine next to the Harajuku Station. Some tiny tots were dressed in Japanese traditional kimonos. They looked really cute.
The sun was hot when I left the hotel this morning, so I wore one jacket but brought along another. It got really cold in Yoyogi Park, so I had to put on another one.
