We went to Shirahama shrine as a first visit of the new year 2014.
Most of Japanese visit to a Shinto shrine during during the new year holidays, and we pray for the safety of our family and possessions as well as to pray for a rich harvest.
My second daughter helped as Miko (Shrine maiden) at this shrine.
