The Star Festival in 2009 / 七夕 [Life]
今日は七夕。
人々は色とりどりの短冊に願い事を書き、それを笹に飾りつける日でもありますが、みなさまはどんな願い事を書かれましたか？
Today is July 7th, the Star Festival called "Tanabata".
People write their wishes on small colorful slips of papers called "Tanzaku" and tie them to bamboo trees to decorate them. What kind of wishes have you written on "Tanzaku"?
The night sky of Tanabata 七夕の夜空
今年も残念ながら天の川どころか星すら拝めませんでしたが、夜空の雲の上に浮かぶ月は、なんとも幻想的でした。
みなさまの願い事が叶いますように！
Unfortunately, I couldn't see the Milky Way. In fact, I could hardly see any stars.
However, the moon that floated on the clouds of the night sky was very fantastic.
I wish your wish comes true!
