The average tempareture is 20¡ëC(68¡ë£Æ) these days.

Castles in Okinawa are very different from Main Islands in Japan.
These heritages were destoryed almost completely by the world war ¶.
All of them are on the way to reconstruction.
¡¡Okinawa is surrounde by beautiful sea. There are many beautiful flowers there. Cherry blossoms were in full bloom.
I will write another Okinawa in my next blog.

LUCKY CATS MASCOTS
2012.01.19 Thursday
Thers are very famous Lucky cat mascots in Japan.
¾·¤Ç¤Î¤ªÏäǤ¹¡£
¡¡The lucky cat mascot. This cat is beckoning you to come here.
Why this cat is lucky cat ? There are many explanations about the lucky cat story.
The most famous story is as follows.
Looking at a cat bekoning, people moved to a temple where the cat is located. So they could escape from a disaster.
The interest thing is cat's gesture.
At first open a hand then clench a fist means " come on" in Japan.
At first clench a fist then open a hand means " go away" in the West.
Both gestures look like the same for western people.
So if you have a Japanese friend, please be careful about the gesture.
One of the famous birthplace is Imado Jinja Shrine at Asakusa in Tokyo.
If you come to Japan,you can find many lucky cat mascots at retail shops,Japanese style bars and souvenir shops.
This cat is bekoning you to enter the shop.
Is it funny or interesting?
