I started uploading pictures to a Flickr account. My first group are from the tori no ichi celebration I went to in Tokyo. You can see it here. The celebration is held to insure prosperity for businesses on rooster days in November. Vendors at the temple sell bamboo rakes to help rake in the money. When they make a substantial sale they clap and chant.

Was introduced to your blog via PG. You have wonderfully used the blog to disseminate the info about Japan. Good work.
