My wife and I went out with the new car today, too. Firstly we visited the Kite Museum in Ikazaki town, which is famous as the town of a kite-flying event. Tens of thousands of people gather into this tiny town on the event day of May 3rd every year and the traffic around always gets heavy so that we've never joined the event until now. Though we were not able to see lots of kites flying in the sky, we visited the kite museum a week after the event, on a serene day. In the museum there was no one but us and we were able to see articles on display at a leisurely pace.
Then I visited a traditional Japanese folk house, Garyuusansou, but there is a lot to be written and I'll write about it in another entry after serious deliberation.
