It was fine.

Today is a national holiday called yama no hi  (山の日), Mountain Day. It was established in 2014, and usually on August 11, but this year was especially arranged for today because of the Tokyo Olympic.

I started the day with Laughter Yoga.

I changed to the summer kimono and headed for Kotohiragu shrine in Tora no mon. As a member of the Power Spot Laboratory, I attended the formal shrine visit event. It started at 2 pm and the session lasted for two hours or so. I went to have tea and cake with 5 members after that and enjoyed talking.

It was a nice three day weekend.

Today is a national holiday called Yama no hi (山の日), Mountain Day which was introduced last year.
For most of people it is a beginning of three day weekend. For me it is a start of 11 days summer vacation.
I wanted to leave Japan today but the flight tickets were too expensive to buy. I will leave Japan tomorrow.
So i went to the beauty salon and other places to shop. I asked the delivery companies to pick up my suitcase and to deliver the goods.

It was a rainy day but I had a good holiday.
