みなさん、こんにちは！実は今日家の近くでお祭りがありました！前にも何回かブログで秋のお祭りについて紹介しましたが、今日はもっとリアルな様子をお伝えしますね🎉
お祭りでは「屋台」というお店がたくさんありますが…. 「ラブブ」😆最近ラブブが人気ですがお祭りの屋台では正直初めて見ました（笑）大体定番の屋台はやきそばやかき氷、たこ焼き、わたあめがありますね！
歩いていたら道にこんなものがありました！これ「太鼓」です！日本のドラムですね、このパフォーマンスと音がとてもかっこいいんです！動画を撮りましたのでYouTubeをお楽しみに🥰
そしてこれ！「お神輿」といって神様を連れて街を歩き回ります！肩に担いで「わっしょい」と言いながらとてもエネルギッシュにたくさんの人が歩くんです。この雰囲気は写真だけではなかなか伝わらない…. もし日本にいたらお祭りに行ってみて下さい！

Hello everyone! Actually, today there was a festival near my house! I’ve already introduced autumn festivals a few times in my blog, but today I want to share a more real experience.
At festivals, there are lots of shops called yatai (food stalls)…. and guess what, “ラブブ” Recently, bubble tea has been popular, but honestly, it was the first time I saw it at a festival stall (lol). Usually, the classic stalls are things like yakisoba, shaved ice, takoyaki, and cotton candy!
While walking around, I found something like this on the street! It’s a taiko (Japanese drum)! The performance and the sound are really cool! I even took a video, so please look forward to it on YouTube.
And here’s this! It’s called an omikoshi, where people carry the gods and walk around the town. They carry it on their shoulders while shouting “Wasshoi!” and a huge group of people moves very energetically. This atmosphere is hard to capture in just photos… If you’re ever in Japan, please try going to a festival!
