今日は旧元旦。仕事帰りに駅の改札口に近づくと、太鼓の音が聞こえてきた。改札口に入ると獅子が踊っていた。

「そうか、春節祭が始まったんだ」と思い、少しの間、太鼓の音と獅子舞踊りを楽しんだ。

コロナ禍でなければ、横浜中華街では大変な賑わいのはずだが、今年も厳しいだろう。

でも、意気消沈していられないという気概を感じた獅子舞だった。

Today is New Year's Day. As I approached the ticket gate of the station on my way home from work, I heard the sound of drums. When I entered the ticket gate, a lion was dancing.

I thought, "Well, the Chinese New Year Festival has begun," and enjoyed the sound of drums and the lion dance for a while.

If it weren't for Corona, it would be very busy in Yokohama Chinatown, but it will be tough this year as well.

However, it was a lion dance that felt the spirit of not being depressed.
