ミシェルと瀧昇くんも一緒に浅草のほおずき市へ
夕闇迫る浅草は昼間は雑踏で味わうことができなかった風情が感じられ、違う一面を見ることができました
途中サマーワークショップでやった「白浪五人男」のお人形をお店の屋根の上に見つけて大喜び
弁天小僧を見つけて「これ、私！」と駆け寄るミシェル
浅草寺境内は紅色の山門と白熱灯に照らされたオレンジ色のほおずきと青々とした葉が、とってもきれい
みんなでおみくじを引いたらミシェル、僕と妻が大吉、瀧昇くんと娘は吉
とってもラッキーな気分で浅草を後にしました

Took Michelle to “Chinese Lantern Festival” in Asakusa, with Takisho kun.
The dimness of the evening made Asakusa beautiful in a different way than usual.
Michelle was excited to see the dolls of “Shiranami
Gonin Otoko” that she had learnt in the Summer Workshop in the University of Hawaii, on the rooftops of the shops around the Sensoji Temple.
Finding the Benten Kozo, she rushed to the shop and said, “This is me!”.
The red temple was stunningly gorgeous with a whole bunch of orange Chinese Lanterns and their green leaves under the lights of filament lamps.
Five of us drew fortune slips and Michelle, my wife and myself got “very good luck”.
“Good luck” to my daughter and Takisho kun.
Isn’t it great?
Delighted for the lucky revelation, we left Asakusa.
