Saké! 2008-04-14 3 Comments
According to my friends who took me here, these huge jugs of Saké are donated by businesses to help fund the grounds of this shrine, the Meiji Shrine.
Rats. I just googled "Meiji Shrine" to check the spelling, and learned that I just missed this: "The eleventh of April is the day that Empress Shoken passed away, and we will hold a ceremony in her honour. The ceremony will be carried out according to ancient Shinto rites: there will be a recital of Shinto liturgy, food offerings (including vegetables grown in the forest of Meiji Jingu), and a sacred dance based on a poem by Empress Shoken wishing for openness and honesty in the world."

- I visited Meiji Shrine myself about 10 years ago, it's a great place for photos! Nice shot of the Saké.

Inte så mycket innehåll än men det kommer väl. Ta gärna en titt. Och tack för tipset om Blueberry muffin! Det blev några stycken under resan...
