In other news, I finally watched Inception today!
A little quote from the film:
"Dreams feel real while we're in them. It's only when we wake up that we realize something was actually strange."

Project 365: Day 169



Balls!
Went back to Fuchu Festival today. There isn't much to see, but most kids are enjoying themselves playing all sorts of scooping games (goldfish, water balloon yoyo, rubber balls) :D

Goldfish scooping (金魚すくい, 金魚掬い Kingyo-sukui?) is a Japanese traditional game in which a player scoops goldfish with a special scooper. It is also called, "Scooping Goldfish", "Dipping for Goldfish" or "Snatching Goldfish". "Kingyo" means goldfish and "sukui" means scooping. Sometimes bouncy balls are substituted for goldfish. Japanese summer festivals or ennichi commonly have a stall. Both children and adults enjoy the game. The game is played for pleasure, but today, there is a National Competition of Goldfish Scooping in Japan.

Kuro-Tamago

Kuro-tamago (黒玉子?) — a local specialty of eggs hard-boiled in the hot springs. The boiled eggs turn black and smell slightly sulphuric; consuming the eggs is said to increase longevity. Eating one is said to add seven years to your life. You may eat up to two and a half for up to seventeen and a half years, but eating a whole third is said to be highly unadvised.

Day 163: Sensoji

Sensoji (also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple) is a Buddhist temple located in Asakusa, the center of the shitamachi (lit. "low town").

The legend says that in the year 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them. Consequently, Sensoji was built there for the goddess of Kannon. The temple was completed in 645, making it Tokyo's oldest temple.
