Mari and Misaki shopping at Unno-Machi
昨日は亀清の若女将を若若女将と一緒に上田市の海野町商店街でクリスマスの買い物してきました。日本のこういう昭和のころに流行った商店街は大手のお店の競争で苦しんでいます。海野町の商店街は色々なイベントをやって、にぎやかにしています。靴屋さんや祭り用品屋の祭屋や、それぞれの店の店員さん達は親切できちんとしたサービスしてくれた。これからも頑張ってください！
Yesterday, I went Christmas shopping with Kamesei's junior proprietress and junior-junior proprietress. We went to Ueda City's Unno-Machi shopping arcade. These types of Showa-era shopping districts have really fallen on hard times in Japan, as the big-box stores have gained in popularity. What the shops here lack in convenience and selection, they make up for with kind and knowledgeable shopkeepers, making shopping fun. In particular, the shoe shop and the festival goods store, Saiya, had 'genki' owners. Here's to Unno-Machi's success.
