New Year's Day

This year we went over to Edgewater to the Mitsuwa Market place to have New Year's Day in the Japanese style. Well, not really, as there were no shrines to go to, and no arrow with new year's fortune to buy. They did have a Taiko drum performance, mochi pounding and a teeny little dragon dance. While there, we got some good Japanese food and got some supplies from the grocery. Also got a lucky bag, from one of the shops. The contents are shown in the last photo. While it wasn't like the old days, it did give a chance to reflect on our time in Japan and how nice it was there.
