今日の青谷は春の例大祭で、町中に笛の音と掛け声が響いていました。
3つの神社（湊神社・潮津神社・相屋神社）の神輿がそれぞれ練り歩いていました。神社の距離が近いので、とても活気があります！大人神輿、子ども神輿があるそうです。
たまたま居合わせて、青谷ようこそ館での、アイスと冷奴で休憩中の様子🍨(いい休憩)

午後からは有志の青年団「舞踊団」の青谷駅前傘踊りを拝見しました。
「男踊り」とも呼ばれるらしいです。
力強く、そして緩急のある、とてもかっこいい踊りでした。
本来、鹿野城主を偲んだものらしいです。歌詞もそのように聞こえます。
振りに剣道の型が取り入れられているそうで、剣での戦いを表しているようにも見えました。
昨年も五島さんの前で見させてもらい、今年も一緒に見させてもらいました☺️

Today Aoya was celebrating its spring festival, and the sound of flutes and shouts echoed through the town.
The portable shrines of each of the three shrines (Ushiozu Shrine, Minato Shrine, and Aiya Shrine) were parading around. The shrines are very close to each other, making the festival very lively! They have an adult mikoshi and a children's mikoshi.
I happened to be there and took a break with ice cream and cold tofu at "Aoya Youkoso Kan" 🍨.

In the afternoon, I watched the "Aoya Ekimae Umbrella Dance" performed by the volunteer youth group “Buyo-dan” (dance troupe).
I heard it is also called “Otoko Odori” (male dance).
It was a very cool dance with a strong and slow pace.
It is said to be originally in memory of the Lord of Shikano Castle. The lyrics also sound like that.
It is said that kendo kata was incorporated into the swing, and it seemed to represent a sword fight.
I was able to see it last year in front of "Coffee & Curry Goto" and I was able to see it again this year. ☺️
