Don't miss this cooling chance when you come across this typical flag!
It says "Kaki-Gori", or shaved ice.

These local stall with flag reminds me of summer night festival when I was child.
A nice yummy adventure! :)

This retro-flavored, ice shaving machine is "Kyoro-chan".
This cute shaped machine was quite popular for each family when I was child. :)
"Kyoro" is imitative word of "looking around". While shaving the ice, his eyes' moving like looking around!
Interesting!

This is modern type.
Making kakigori at home is a simple and easy process!
