There are a lot of holidays for this period and when holiday of the weekend enters there, it becomes consecutive holidays. We call it ''Golden Week''.
This year's Golden Week was a schedule to which it easily took consecutive holidays, everywhere in Japan was very crowded.
Our family went out to many places, I tell you here our holiday on 4th May this time.
We went to a park which is near by our house.
There is my kids and my favorite place one. a small Shinto shrine and a quiet museum is too at there,too.
It is always a quiet place however, it was different on this day.
We heard of a big sound of the trumpet and the singing voice of the power of people.
I know what that sound was!! yes It was a big festival once in year in Hamamatsu city. This festival hold on the Golden Week, 3th to 5 th May every year.
There is a huge kiteflying battle to oppose the town in the coast and a gorgeous ''Dashi(山車)''(a Float) parades in the town at night. 
However, this year these were cancelled because considering the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami many many people died on 11th March also we have problem of electricity shortage in Japan now.
Most events are self-restraint in Japan.
on the one other,keep held event as like every year because some people think that we should get over this sadness situation,so we need the vigor now.
The people who had been preparing it for one year for the Hamamatsu festival gathered in the Shinto shrine on the day when the festival was scheduled to be held, they were drinking Sake at there.
a trumpet which was in his hand is peculiar for the Hamamatsu festival ↑↑↑
We were chatting with them then we moved to the precincts.
Shake the rope then the bell is rung↑↑↑
since yore of ancient times, people believe that there is power to purify a wicked in the tinkling of a bell.
The ''O-Inari-san''(god of harvest) is enshrined at next to this shrine.
The spectacle where vermilion ''O-Inari-san''(god of harvest) is seen in a deep forest is very beautiful.
well, we go to the museum after it visits in general every time.
This museum where history of Hamamatsu is understood well.
I have introduced about this museum at the my blog long time ago, check it here.
There has renewed inside of the Hamamatsu museum then it became easy and much better to see the exhibition further.
My children can experience the flow in 5000 in about five minutes.because they came to here many times,so they know almost everything.
We found the new exhibits. ↓↓↓
It is exhibited like understanding how furniture and the consumer electronic have evolved at there. it is an appearance 50 years ago, and an appearance of the house of 80 years ago.
There are a refrigerator, iron, radio, water service(taps), and a textbook, etc.
My child shows interest in the old (black) telephone.
He could imagine that it might be a telephone but he didn't know how use it. he asked me how push the button??
I taught him how to dial phone number. it remind me my parents' home number.
