Magical October has started!

On the next day after the strong typhoon left, it was a beautiful day and a great start of magical October!!

It was the full moon yesterday(30th).
It was a special full moon to Japanese, which was called "Chu-syu no Mei-getsu" meaning "beautiful full moon in the mid-fall".
According to the lunar calender, this period is mid-fall.
This special full moon is always associated with the set of dumplings and Japanese pampas grass.

I went to Tokyo with my mother and sister because Mother danced at a ballroom dance party.
Since the typhoon was approaching to Tokyo yesterday, the party was proceeded faster.

The professional demonstrations usually start after we finish amateur demonstrations and dinner.
But it started before we finished meal.

It was like a dinner show.
It was something like we raced against the typhoon!

Finale!
Thanks and farewells from all the teachers!

The train still ran after the party was over and people hurried home.
We came home by taxi and even in the car, we felt it was very windy.
But it wasn't raining heavily and we could arrive home safely.
After we arrived, I knew some highways were closed and trains stopped.
Friends of mother also could came back home safely.
It was a perfect timing!

Party was great!
Mother danced beautifully and got good compliments.

In the middle of the night, the typhoon left and I could see this beautiful special full moon!!!

Since I gave it up, I was VERY HAPPY to find this.
It was sooooo beautiful after the typhoon washed away all the dust.
I made a wish on this beautiful full moon!!!

Very different within one day.
Typhoon and full moon.
I felt like I was bewitched between the end of September and the beginning of October.

It was a great start of  Magical October!!!

Special Magic for you, too!!!!!
