☆The friendly makeup staff of GION AYA, the Maiko Experience Place☆Takami and Konitan go on a trip to Kobe!!!

Hello everyone!!
This is Konishi, and I wear a nightcap every night to protect my hair (^^)/
When you sleep with a nightcap on, your hair will be smooth and shiny in the morning!

This is it (lol)↓↓↓

It looks really lame while sleeping, but I can't sleep without it now!
It protects your hair from friction and prevents it from breaking or getting damaged! (*^_^*)
This is a must have for people with high tone hair like me!

The other day I went on a trip to Kobe with Takami-san (Takasawa), and of course I brought a nightcap!
The reason why I chose Kobe is because I won it in a lottery last year.Complimentary pair tickets for lunch cruiseThe expiration date was approaching, and again!Ukiyo-eTo go see it!!!

The cruise lunch departs from Kobe Harborland."Concerto"It was a dreamlike experience to board the boat and enjoy a relaxing cruise to the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge while eating food and listening to live music!!

By the way, it was raining a lot that day...
But we set sail with ease (*^^)

I chose the Teppanyaki course where the food is cooked right in front of me, and it was absolutely delicious (*^_^*)

Medium rare!
After the meal, we listened to live music and felt so luxurious!!

And the second destination!!Ukiyo-e! !
This timeKobe City MuseumCurrently being held at"Our Kuniyoshi, My Kunisada, from the collection of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts"I went to the place!!!



We don't know anything specific about Ukiyo-e, but we just love it!!
It's amazing that such a great work has existed for so long!
There were plenty of works by Utagawa Kuniyoshi and Utagawa Kunisada, who were active in the late Edo period!

This was seriously so much fun!!!
The explanations for each item are playful and contain cartoon-like expressions that are relevant to the present day...

↑Isn't this really cute and manga-like?
What's more, they're so kind as to allow me to take photos of the exhibits until the end of July (*^^)

All in all it was fun!!! I want to go again!!!

And what's more, while we were looking around, we heard that there was an ukiyo-e exhibition going on in another location as well!!!
I found a poster in the museum.
I had to go! So I quickly headed there＼(^o^)／

Another thing I've seen isKobe Fashion MuseumCurrently being held at"Sharaku and Toyokuni: Beauty and Attire in Edo"!

Here, works by various ukiyo-e artists, mainly Toshusai Sharaku and Utagawa Toyokuni, were on display!
Odoyama is 7 years old and plump (lol)

Afterwards, the exhibition will be held in the gallery on the fourth floor."The World of Antique Buttons" ExhibitionI also went there!
Admission is free!

There were so many cute antique buttons!
I've been into vintage items lately so this was perfect for me!
I want to make them into earrings
This offer is valid until the 15th so it will end soon!

So, it was a very fulfilling trip!!
Ukiyo-e is so much fun~(*^^)
By the way, I just realized while looking at it that there is a mutual discount between the Kobe Fashion Museum's "Sharaku and Toyokuni: Beauty and Fashion in Edo" and the Kobe City Museum's "Our Kuniyoshi, My Kunisada"!
We didn't notice at all...

If you are going, don't miss it!!

Also look forward to the next article about Takami and Konitan's holiday!
