2017.10.9

It was fine.

Today is a national holiday called Taiiku no hi (体育の日), Health-Sports Day. This used to be on October 10 commemorating the Tokyo Olympic in 1964. But since 2000 it has become the second Monday of October for Happy Monday System.

This is the last day of three day weekend.

I stayed home to receive the re-delivered goods in the morning.
Then I went to Kimono-Style Miya to participate in the event of bodyguard. I wore light yellow green Oshima tsumugi (大島紬) which is a tradtional Japanese articraft of 1300 years of history in Amamioshima (奄美大島) in Kagashima  (鹿児島) prefecture. Yellow green is my color of this year.

Two bodygurads escorted me. It was a very special experience.  When I heard about this event, I was not interested in it  at all, but I am glad to have attended.

In the evening I came to Roppongi and had dinner at Hinokizaka restaurant of the Ritz-Carlton,Tokyo. The view was very beautiful, and the meal was delicious as always.

Thank you very much.
