Yesterday, on Saturday, I drove to Kamogawa, Chiba to attend a Buddhist Ceremony for our Grand Father which is scheduled on Sunday.
It takes three hours drive to reach there and the ceremony is scheduled at 10:30 am in the morning.
We (family members) decide to arrive one day earlier to enjoy staying in town.
We used to visit there often when our grand parents were still alive.
We have many memories here and there in town.
We used to stay in Kanpo no Yado Kamogawa, a hotel operating by a Japanese former national insurance company (currently, privatized).
We used to dine at a restaurant to enjoy local food and bath in a large public bath over looking Pacific Ocean.
This hotel is reasonable and located in front of Kamogawa Sea World (aquarium) and our Temple, Eimeiji (Eimei Temple).
I attended a ceremony and we also enjoyed eating lunch and talking after the ceremony.
They gave us a box of Soramame (broad beans) as a sourvenir.
I love this beans so quickly boiled and ate when I got back.
It’s so fresh!!!
I miss my Grand Parents.
Please Rest In Peace.
