Hakozaki Shrine (筥崎八幡宮)

Yesterday, after plane spotting, I went to Hakozaki Shrine to pray for my new year's wish. I saw many young people wore kimono because today, on 14 January, is Coming of Age Day, a public holiday held on the second Monday of every January.

I wrote both my new year's wish and a thank you message for Yuko Oshima. Yuko-san came this shrine for shooting archery tournament on 15 July last year.
