Autumn is a season of enjoyable.
In Japan, we call it ''the Autumn is good season for sports, art and appetite''.
It finished the sultry summer then our body and heart getting relaxing and cooler with nice weather. also the this season when delicious food fruits.
 
The first photo is Sarunako(Lake of Saruna) in Hamamatsu-city.
Many people are always in the park which encloses a lake as a place of citizens' relaxation.
The other day, the festival of autumn was held here.

As I told by the last blog, the big typhoon hits to Hamamatsu and many trees of this park also fell.
Yes, it cleared up after the typhoon passed. we call it ''Typhoon Ikka''(台風一過) in Japanese.
If a typhoon passes, it is said that a rainstorm is blessed with fine weather like a lie.

people who wear the interesting costumes and play the music was coming here!!

They are ''Chindon-ya''. Chindon-ya is old style about 100 years ago costumed street musicians in Japan that advertise for shops.
Since it is the purpose to attract the public notice anyhow, they are dressing strangely. 

They are requested from the store to open or the store which carries out a bargain sale, and they parade a town, distribute handbills, or saying a sales message in loud voice. 
Although it was very popular long long time ago, I didn't see them when I was child.

The drum in this photograph is a drum peculiar to the Chindon-ya.
Alto sax is also in the photograph on one more. 
This sax sound is like sorrowful...
The Chindon-ya's performance has much sad musics.. I don't know why.
They are wearing unusual clothes but these middle-aged old guys who looks tired face..
so my image for the Chindon-ya is kind of dark..

ohhh, the pierrot of circus also makes people laugh however amusingness and sadness are two sides of the same coin. 
Are there any common point??

well, my family came to this event had the purpose.
That was because my children wanted to go the exchange bazaar.
The toy no longer using is brought to the hall, and get the point according to the toy, and can buy the favorite toy which other children brought on the point. 
No money, they can get toy with points!!

It is conditions that the toy has not broken and that it can still use enough.

then get the points.
Can you see the frog in the point card?
in Japanese, ''can buy'' and ''exchange'' is same pronunciation ''Kaeru'' also frog is ''Kaeru'' too,that's why this event's character is ''Frog''!!

The toy is carried out in response to a voice!!
