Blog#3:My City(Momoko Watanabe)

Hello, I'm Momoko Watanabe.  I'm going to introduce you my city.  I live in Kisarazu, Chiba. Kisarazu is a rural city, but a few people may have heard Kisarazu because "Kisarazu Cat's Eye" which is a series of TV drama and movies set here about 10 years ago.
This movie is the theme song which is sang by actors appeared in the drama.  They are popular, so even now some people visit shooting places.  The song has phrase, "Yassai Mossai".  It is a traditional dance of Kisarazu. Every summer, Yassai Mossai Festival is held and many groups compete by their dance.  The festival is full of activity, so you can enjoy seeing it.
Also, Kisarazu is a seaside city and famous for short-neck clams.  In summer, a lot of people visit here to gather shellfish.  If you find a clam painted gold, you can receive toasted lavers from Kisarazu as a prize.  Furthermore, last year Mitsui outlet Park Kisarazu opened.  This facility has 220 stores, and it is the largest outlet mall of Japan.  Therefore, everyone will find favorite things.  Please enjoy my city, Kisarazu!

  1. Tell me about the summer festival - is it a tradition in your town? I have never heard of it. Have you been to it or danced in it?
