It was fine.
Today is risshun (立春), one of nijyushisekki (二十四節気), the 24 solar terms.
The last one is daikan (大寒) on January 20, and the next one is usui (雨水) on February 19.
Risshun literally means stand spring, it is the first day of spring, and regarded as the begining of the new year.
Happy New Year!!
In the morning I went to Kimono-style Miya to try being a maiko-san (舞妓さん). Maiko-san is a young entertainer well-dressed beautiful kimono of long sleeves.
It did not take a long time to get dressed but it took a long time to get hairset. I got on jinrikisha (人力車), man-powered vehicle again.
In the afternoon I went to the beauty salon to have my hair permed.
It was a nice weekend.
