The Moon over Kamesei
今晩のお月様がうんと綺麗でした。あと１週間ぐらいで満月：中秋の名月。この辺では大事な時期です。今週末（９月１３日から１５日まで）は姨捨の観月際です。「田毎の月」で有名な姨捨で俳句大会等行う予定です。今年は特に楽しみです。先日の日経新聞｢トップ１０月見スポット」として一番に選ばれました。
（姨捨は亀清から車で１０分です。）
Tonight's moon was so bright and clear. Almost a full moon; the Harvest Moon. Around here, that has special meaning. Obasute will hold their annual 'Kangetsusai' (Moon Viewing Festival) this weekend from September 13th thru 15th. Obasute is famous for it's 'Tagoto-no-Tsuki' terraced rice paddies and a haiku contest will be held as part of the festival. This year is especially celebratory, as Nikkei Newspaper recently selected Obasute as the best place in the country for 'tsukimi' (Moon Viewing).
Obasute is located 10 minutes by car from Kamesei.
