I had a chance to visit Kyoto last month. It was a beautiful day! Kyoto – the center of Japanese culture. No matter how many times of the visits, it is great.
京都に行ってきました。なんていいお天気！京都 – 日本文化の中心。何度訪れてもいいですね。
On this trip the Demachi-Yanagi Station of Keihan Line was the start. The station is underground. As soon as getting out onto the ground, we could enjoy crossing the two bridges over Takano River and Kamo River. As keep walking toward Kyoto Gosho the Imperial Palace, I found so many people on the shopping street. They were waiting in a line turned around many times since it was very long.
今回の旅は京阪電鉄出町柳からのスタートです。この地下の駅から出てくるとすぐ、高野川と鴨川の橋を渡れます。御所に向かって進んでいると、商店街に人だかりが。大勢の人が折り返して並んでいます。
As I walked by I learned that it was Demachi Futaba Wagashi Japanese traditional confectionery. In the show case, many kind of Wagashi Japanese traditional sweets were displayed, such as Man-Jue sweetedn Adzuki bean rice cake, Dango sweeten soft rice ball, Mame-Mochi rice cake with beans, Oseki-Han cooked Mochi rice with beans…
寄ってみると、そこは、「出町ふたば」和菓子屋さん。お饅頭、団子、豆餅、お赤飯など色々な和菓子が陳列されていました。
Everything was very attractive. I wished line were not this long… then I left.
どれもとても魅力的。でも、こんなに並んで待てない。。あきらめる。
We enjoyed sight seeing so much at the Gosho the Imperial Palace and the Nijo-Jo Castle.
Good time passed so quickly. Then I had to leave Kyoto.
楽しいときはすぐに過ぎ、京都を出なきゃ。
At the JR Kyoto Station when I was about to be done the last minutes shopping for Kyoto Products and food and drink for the ride of Shinkansen Bullet Train, I found a notice on the shopping counter. It was about Mame-Mochi (it was Mame-Daifuku) produced by Demachi Futaba was available here limited only in Sunday evening. Yeah? That Demachi Futaba? Really? The Wagashi Confectionery with the long line? It took me two moments to accept the information and asked the seller there. Yes. It was that Mame-Daifuku. It was the only product available here, and three of them were already packed. The only available was what I wanted so bad. How lucky I found and purchased it!
JR京都駅で新幹線に乗る前の最後の買い物を済ませようとしたところ、お土産店のカウンター上に張り紙を発見。出町ふたばの豆餅（豆大福）が日曜日夕方限定で販売しているとか。え？あの出町ふたばの？すごく並んでいたあの店の？二瞬考える。。で、聞いてみたら、やっぱ、そう。3個パックされた豆餅（豆大福）だけ販売されていた。それだけしかなかったけど、それが欲しかったものなんだから。ついてるっ。
