Shichigosan

Adam and his new friend eat candied grapes.





We took Grandpa out to Kamakura. We hit Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine during Shichigosan, which is the traditional custom of taking boys aged 3 and 5 and girls aged 3 and 7 to be blessed at the local Shinto shrine to thank for their good health and pray for future blessings. Everyone looked so cute. Then we took Adam to the aquarium, where he enjoyed the fish and dolphins.
