2018.12.22

It was rainy but became fine. The moon is so beautiful now.

Today is toji (冬至) winter solstice, one of nijyushisekki(二十四節気), the 24 solar terms. Last one was taisetsu (大雪) on December 7  and the next one is shokan (小寒) on January 6.
Toji is the day when the daytime is the shortest in a year. On this day we take a yuzu bath, and eat pumpkin not to get cold.

I went to Shinjuku to attend the four-hour seminar which I happened to find by Facebook ad and applied for a few days ago.
There were 8 participants and most of them were women. It was very interesting.

After that four of us went out for dinner. We enjoyed talking and eating.

It was a nice day.
