I celebrated the New Year with my family in the morning, having 'festive food for the New Year' that I made yesterday and drinking 'Japanese Sake'.

In the afternoon, I walked to a shrine near my house to pray for our healthy and happy life this year.
Some people were also praying there.



Though many big and famous shrines all over Japan are crowded with great many people on new year days, this shrine wasn't crowded at all.
I felt fresh and happy to go there.
May this year be a happy, peaceful and fruitful one !
