ホーランエンヤ 2019 Horan-Enya

第3大船:大井・The third of the big boats from Ooi village

5月18日(土曜)はホーランエンヤの渡御祭。その日は曇りでした。

It was overcast on Saturday’s Horan-Enya as the boats escorting the Jozan Inari Shrine from the grounds of Matsue Castle headed for Adakaya Shrine in Higashi Izumo.

第2大船:やだ・The second of the big boats from Yada village

5月26日(日曜)はホーランエンヤの還御祭。その日は晴れて素晴らしい天気でした!

When the boats and the shrine retuned on the following Sunday, after 7 days of prayers for a good harvest in Higashi Izumo, the weather was spectacular!

由志園・Yuushien

Jennifer です😊

ゴールデンウィークに由志園へ遊びに行って来ました。たくさんの牡丹が咲いていてとてもきれいでした!

During Golden Week, we visited the beautiful garden on Daikonshima, Yuushien.  The garden is famous for its peonies and has 250 different Japanese varieties.  Many were still in full bloom while we were there.

晴れていて小道もゆっくり散歩しました。美しい朱色の橋を渡り、小さな滝を眺めました。

It was a warm, sunny day, with a brilliant blue sky.  We strolled along the garden paths, over the beautiful vermiliion bridge, and admired the little waterfall.

私の好きなキレイな藤の花もありました💜

Also stunning were the many trellises with their veils of blooming wisteria.♥
