Geshi (summer solstice)

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

It was the summer solstice yesterday.



We call "Geshi" in Japanese.
Geshi means the summer solstice.

Some areas have the customs to eat Benincasa hispida or octopus on the day of summer solstice.
But it is not common in Japan.

There is not the special custom of the summer solstice, but it tells us that the summer comes soon.
