2014.6.21

It was cloudy.

Today is geshi (夏至), one of nijyushisekki(二十四節季), the 24 solar terms.  It is the day when the daytime is the longest.

I came to Suwa, Nagano with my friends and visited three shrines.  Gods of two shrines are couples. There was a summer festival at the third shrine and we could see the special dance dedicated to gods.

We visited the sake brewery too.

The Japanese style hotel is very nice, especially dinner and hotspring.
I hope you have a chance to enjoy them too.
