I used to go there when my children were small and enjoyed walking around each open street stall.
Once my daughter asked me to open a stall there and we tried one with some friends there. It was just fan of old memories.
Yesterday many people were coming and going at the area.
I wanted to some fresh vegetables but it was too late at around 8:30am though....I finally found the last two packages of small bamboo shoot.
I joyfully bought them and a wild plant "Yomena" at the other stall.
I'll go get fresh vegetables next month earlier in the morning.
Flea market is very fun.
返信削除I also used to go to "Asaichi". But now I cannot go there because I don't get up early.
I like a tomato very much. I cannot buy ripe tomatoes at a supermarket.
I want to eat ripe tomatoes someday.
You can do it because you get up early every day.
Of course I can!
削除I can get up around 5:00 am, instead I go to bed early around 10:00pm.
The care of my granddaughter is hard than I thought.
返信削除I don't have time to think about comment.
I'm going to take my granddaughter to Hyogo tomorrow.
When finished Golden Week, I'll have worn out.
It seems that you have so exciting Golden week with your granddaughter. Enjoy your time until your tiredness with her!
削除I had been thought "flea market" is "free market" until now.
返信削除"Free market" which is usually said in Japan was a Japanese-made English, wasn't it?
I learned it by this your blog for the first time.
By the way, is "flea market" which you went for "blue sky of flea market" of Gokoku shrine held on first Sunday every month?
In my home also, the bride of the son sometimes goes there with grandchildren early in the morning.
Yup! That's right.
削除It's been held for a long time since ...I don't know LOL.
Anyway there are many different kinds of stalls which are owned by different kinds of people from young to old and hobby to commerce. It's a kind of nostalgic market out of age.
"Blue sky of flea market" of Gokoku shrine have held from October 1984, so there is a history of 32 years.
返信削除I also have visited once ten years ago, and I remember there was the stall of various kinds and was crowded.
Oh..,thanks a lot for your research of the history of the flea market.
削除It's absolutely smell the Showa era.
