Good morning and happy new week from #Japan!

Almost exactly two years ago, my wife and I went to #Katori Jingu, a shrine in #Chiba Prefecture. Here are a few photos taken that day; details in ALT texts.

髙木屋老舗 草だんご

柴又帝釈天の参道にある髙木屋老舗は明治元年創業。
「男はつらいよ」撮影時に休憩場所として使われたお店として有名、車寅次郎の実家「とらや」のモデルにもなったとか。

A stop along the approach to Nishi-Arai Daishi.
Freshly made kusadango at Shimizuya — soft, fragrant mugwort dumplings covered with a generous layer of sweet red bean paste.
