辰年 / Dragon Year

今年は辰年。去年の災禍を振り払うよう、威勢の良い辰年男に(多分？)担がれ練り歩く勇ましい辰が城下に！これで今年が少しでも復興に向かう年になるよう、希望と新たな誓いを！

This is the Year of the Dragon in Chinese astrology. Then appeared a dashing dragon carried by the men born in the Dragon Year. I hope this valiant dragon is scaring away the bad luck falling down in Japan last year. Good Luck for 2012 !!!

謹賀新年 / Happy New Year！

明けましておめでとうございます。余りにも多くの事がありすぎた昨年の重みを抱え込んだまま新年に。せめて心安らぐささやかな花で、今年は始めたいと思います。本年も宜しくお願いいたします。

A Happy New Year !
We had so many things going on around Japan last year, and still we have no clear future in sight. I just pray for a better world this year with this quiet small flowers. Good luck for you all, too!
