Grape Harvest Festival ~Wine~



I’ll talk about Montmartre Wine.


The oldest vineyard is in Montmartre, and wine is produced now.





This festival is held to worship the god of wine.




There are many rare wines there, because these wines are produced only from the Grape Harvest Festival.




They are named after some celebrities who are related to Montmartre every year.


Those from the French whole country who love wine gather in the plaza.


It costs 50 Euro to buy a bottle.


However, all sales of wine are used for the funds of a charity.


I respect them who sell wine without obtaining an advantage.


When we become 20 years old, let’s go to the Grape Harvest Festival.


Let’s drink wine together.

Autumn festival in Tsu


Hi!! Today I’ll write about Autumn Festivals.
My home town has festival this weekend. It is called ‘Tsu Festival.’ It is held for three days every year. There are many stalls, for example, yakisoba, okonomiyaki, takoyaki. It is popular among people living in Tsu.

And many dance teams come from the Japanese whole country. They dance ‘Yosakoi’ which is Japanese traditional dance. Of course, there are many dance teams in Tsu.

It has been held for 360 years. There are some traditions. They are called ‘Tojin dance’ ‘Syagouma.’ They walk around Tsu City while performing and dancing. They surprise children, and launch the firecracker. They came to Japan from Korea in the Edo era. They walked while dancing and playing some instruments. And this is being performed by the Japanese now.

There was a man named Todo Takatora. He had a castle in Tsu. Now he passes the town taking the ship. Every year an entertainer takes this ship. He throws out many rice cakes and many cakes from the ship. Many people come to this ship.


This festival is held by many volunteers. I think it is very wonderful that it is performed to have been performed for a long times now. They pick up trash, and hold the free market. Some goods which you want might be sold cheaply. This festival is held thanks to a lot of volunteers like this. Further many people love history and culture in Tsu. This is a reason for the success in Tsu Festival. Please come to ‘Tsu Festival’ next year.

★Movies★

Hi!! Today I write about Movies. I don’t see the movie so much. Though movies that I have seen are few, I'll tell some movies.
Recently I watch ‘’20th Century Boy.” This is action and mystery movie. It is scientism and action movie. This content is this! In 1969, boys wrote a book saying that the earth was ruined at the 20th end of the century. The prediction is achieved by “friend” tens of years later. They don’t know who “friend” is. They try stopping his plan. And this movie has not been finished yet. It has 3 works. It just started. This movie’s actor is Toshiaki Karasawa. His performance is very nice!! “20th Century Boys” is published comic. I have never read this comic, but I heard this comic is very interesting. If I have a opportunity, I want to read it. If someone have it, I was been used it.
This is "20th Century Boys"





I like drama in the United States "Prison Break" though it is not movie. This story is that young man sneak into the prison too break the prison with his brother. But there are many difficult problems, for example route, overseer, and prisoner. This drama has three works now. It has not been finished yet. This is very exciting drama. How do they break the prison? Who cheated his brother? This has a lot of mysteries and makes me exciting and interesting.
This is "Prison Break"
What’s your favorite movie? Please tell me!!
