久しぶりに米沢の冬祭りをゆっくり見て来た。雪灯籠祭りです。毎年２月中旬やる祭りだが、なんだか、この数年間、いつもその時期が忙しくて、行けなかった。
今年こそっと思って、無理矢理にお姉さんのところに泊めていただいて、見えたん。（行くその朝まで電話しなかったよ。わりーねっす、あねっちゃ。）
また短いムービー予告編みたいなビデオを作ったんで、見てけらっしゃい。

I got up to Yonezawa City in Yamagata Prefecture in mid-February to see the Snow Lantern Festival. It’s been several years since I last went. I’ve been meaning to go, but somehow, I always seem to be busy on the weekend it is held. Anyway, it was a spur-of-the-moment trip. I conned my sister-in-law into letting me stay overnight at their place. (Didn’t even call her until the day I planned to stay. Sorry about that, sis.) It was well worth it though. It’s a nice Festival. Sort of like Christmas in February. I made a “movie-trailer” type video of it. Check it out.
