It was fine.

Today is a national holiday called Kenkoku kinen no hi (建国記念の日), National Foundation Day.

After checking out the hotel I headed for Atsuta jingu shrine.  At the Jingu mae station I got together with my cousin living in Gifu, and we went to Atsuta jingu shrine.

Since today is National Foundation Day we could see the special shinto ceremony and traditional archery performance. 

We got together another relative and had lunch.

After that we went to Shiratori Garden and enjoyed walking around and having sweets.

After saying good bye I went to have dinner at a famous restaurant. There was a long line about 30 to 40 minutes. I ate a square meal.

I went to pick up the suitcase and took 19:38 Shinkansen.

It was a nice trip.

It was a cold cloudy and rainy day.

I arrived at YCAT at 5:05. It was earlier than schedule.

I came home before 7 am.

After attending Laughter yoga, I went to the City Office to hear the result of the health check I had last year. I got some advice to be healthy. I need to take much water or caffeine free drinks.

After having lunch, I watched a movie on TV.

At night I attended a zoom event.

It was fine.

I got up as usual, did TV gymnastics, and checked out the hotel to meet someone at the Nagoya station. We went to Atsuta jingu shrine first and had Okiyomemochi with green tea, and went to Osu kannon temple and ate Mont Blanc set which making process and presentation is really good for SNS. It is tasty but rather expensive

We went to Yamada tenmangu shrine and Kogane jinja shrine finally and came back to Nagoya and ate Tofu dinner.

I went back to the hotel to pick up the suit case and took 16:08 Shinkansen.

It was a nice day.
