Thousand Carp Swimming up Waterfall - “Carp Pennant Festal”, in Takatsuki

I heard that a thousand of “Carp Pennants” are swimming in the sky. So I went to see it. It is in the season of bright fresh greenery, that is, in the season of the Boys' Festival. I could fortunately get over the third month of full-fledged employee. Also the job is very crisp. I could successfully enter into the Golden Week holidays. It is a welcome holiday for me. The wind in May have a scent of young leaves. It is very sensible of brisk winds.

Ten minutes walking from JR Takatsuki station toward the west makes me find a swimming carp pennants. It is the “Carp Pennant Festal” in Akutagawa River Cherry Bank Park.

The worm's-eye view of clouds of carp is a sight to see.

There are a lot of parents and children. Children are in high glee. It seems that they are pleasantly enjoy bathing in the ford is very.

Days that I cannot well catch a scene of working with cut and try are lasting, and it is so close and yet so far. I would like to make anyhow a scope for my working, and to try to invite a nice girl to visit here in the next time. It is my honest feeling. I will hang tough for it.

In a normal Japanese home, a member of children’s family are hoisting these carp pennants in days of Boys' Festival in Japan, wishing that their boys will be vigorously growing up, as if they were real carp swimming up waterfalls. The black carp banner is the role of “Father”. The second largest red carp banner is the role of “Mother”. Small size cap banners are the role of children. These kinds are one set for a family. However, in the festal, a cloud of families are swimming in the sky. It is also very the best things. I honestly hope that every child's future is clear and vigorous.

＜1000匹の滝のぼり　-　高槻　「こいのぼりフェスタ」＞

1000匹の「こいのぼり」が大空を泳いでいると聞いて行ってみました。新緑が映えてきました。端午の節句です。正社員3か月目もなんとか乗り切り、仕事の切れもよく、ゴールデンウィークに突入。私にとってはありがたいお休みです。五月の風は、若葉の香り。非常に気持ちがよいものです。

JR高槻駅から、西に向かって徒歩です。10分ほど歩くとだんだん見えてきます。芥川桜堤公園での「こいのぼりフェスタ」です。

[Fig.2]

下から見上げる「鯉」の大群は圧巻です。

[Fig.3]

親子づれがたくさん。子供がおおよろこび。浅瀬で、水浴びも心地よく。

[Fig.4]

仕事の感覚がつかめそうでつかめない試行錯誤の状態が続きます。なんとか余裕を作って、今度は素敵な女性を誘って行ってみたいというのが正直な気持ち。頑張りたいと思います。

通常は、滝をのぼる本物の鯉のように、男の子が元気に大きくなることを願って、家族のものが子供の日に掲揚します。黒の大きい鯉が「お父さん」。次の赤い鯉が「お母さん」、小さいサイズが「子供たち」で一家庭用のセットです。ですが、大群で大空を泳ぐ様子もまたいい。子供の将来は明るく元気なものであってほしいと素直に思います。（いつもご覧いただき誠にありがとうございます。）
