HOLIDAY PHOTO DIARY: DAYS 6, 7, & 8

These days consisted of staying in, recovering, exploring, celebrating, and repeating.

Hello creepy

Barrels of sake wrapped in straw

Thank you Emi!!!

About to open up “osechi”

Japanese traditional New Year’s cuisine

Each dish has a meaning

For example, the orange looking one in the middle is called herring roe.

It is eaten as a wish for an abundant harvest and fertility.

And there are many more…

 

Happy New Year, everybody!
