National holiday homage

On one of Japan’s thankfully not too uncommon national holidays, going to a temple and quietly praying for happiness and good health is always an option, although if it’s attempted at one of Tokyo’s more popular places of worship, merriment at least may well come from simply being a member of the melee.

    Nice pic. Looks like Sensoji to me. Correct?

    So the ladies inhaling the incense will be healthy for another year. Shame it didn’t work on my aching joints!

    Had an unpleasant girl tell me to do that to my face right there! I suggested she do it to her charm. Didn’t work for either.
