Kikuyuu-san playing shamisen

Kikuyuu-san (Hanafusa Okaasan & Geiko) played shamisen. She is very skilled. She played Kurokami, Kyo no Shiki and even Natsu wa Hotaru!!

Kikutsuru-san in golden hikizuri

Kikutsuru-san looked wonderful, as usual. I ate some delicious tofu.

I had to take a picture of Kikutsuru-san's hikizuri!!

And, what would be an ozashiki without a dance? I will post the video here as soon as I get it edited!

Domo arigatou gozaimasu for your patience. (should be here by tomorrow!)

Goodbye, Komomo-san
