盆踊り danse folklorique

The drummer girls are young, but the dancers are old...

They are holding a Bon-Odori party in a shrine or a play ground of schools here and there in Tokyo around July 15. The dancers should put on Yukata( an informal cotton Kimono). But dancing mania can't stop jumping in the circle with their working wears like this old guy.

I must walk up a small slope to go to the construction site. On the foot of the hill, there is a very very small empty land. One of the dwellers around there uses it as a small garden. The view of the place makes me cool for a few second enough to stop my walking.

I am so exhausted to walk no more at the Asagaya staion. I need something of sugar. In the coffee shop of the station, I get a piece of cheese cake. Alas, it is not so sweet. But the sugar of it is enough for me to walk back to home.
And this cake is very cheap. I love it.

This old and rusty footbridge crosses over the four railroads. Many who love watching trains or taking pictures walk up there and spending the hot afternoon under the strong Sun.

The iron things in Shinagawa ward are easily and soon rusted with the salty wind from the Tokyo bay.

A young boy is absorbed in reading a book for children.
In my childhood, I used to spend an hour everyday like this boy. When I couldn't finish a book, I brought it back to my home without paying. The owner lady checked the price of the book I brought back and calculated the sum in the end of every month to hand a bill to my mother. At the bakery next door of the book shop, the lady owner did the same way for my getting the cakes. When I entered to the junior high school, my mother gave me five hundred yen for my free use a month.
And I seldom went to the bakery and started visiting to bigger book shops.
