Have you ever heard Ohzu(=大津)? Ohzu is a town located on the north part of Kumamoto. So where is the foot of Aso mountain. A famous river Shirakawa flows though Ohzu. And the weather is so trouble. Really cold winter, and really hot summer every year. But I love this town than somewhere else. In Ohzu, There are good people, good nature, good food, good culture... And the first thing here is my home town! My lovable family live in here all the time. No
w, let me boast of my hometown!!Speaking of Ohzu, here is well-known as a strong Ohzu high school soccer team. I'm a graduate of the department of P.E. of the class 2007. Ohzu high school is famous for not only soccer team, but basketball, baseball and art. The soccer team take part in the all japan champion ship almost every year. The team of this year advanced to the semifinals!! I'm really proud of their activity.
Next is about "Horidashikun(=HDK 掘り出しくん)"!! I know you don't know that and you'll think "What's such a crazy name!?" Well, this is nickname of sweet potato what is harvested in Ohzu. HDK tastes as sweet as useless sugar. Usually we eat it after we cooked Tenopura, Dagojiru, Manjyu made from HDK. Of course, only boil or bake are also nice! The most famous food using HDK in Kumamoto is "Ikinari dango"! You've heard it , didn't you!? It's a steamed bum contains HDK and Japanese bean jam. I'm a Ikinaridango freak! Ha-ha. You could see the special shops throughout Kumamoto, so
let's try to eat if you've ever eaten.
By the way, Ohzu traditional "Karaimo Festival" is coming soon. It will hold at next Sunday(November 9). The festival's contents are artists concert, talk show, cooking contest using HDK, bazzaar, street stalls and so on. Beides, people could join the big event what you could dig and carry back sweet potatos as much as you like for 1000 yen! It's really profitable! Many families joyfully take part in this event every year. They usually get muddy in the end. I had pasted below Ohzu official website that you could see the details. Please see that later.
Third, Ohzu is comfortable town. Here is really rural, but there is also proper city when you get to the center of Ohzu. Almost the people will exchange greeting with you. So Ohzu people are all kind! By the way, my home is surrounded many nature, a primary school and a bate ball park. I'm always moved the sunset and sunrise from here to see. Here is Jinnai area in Ohzu. When we leave for north about 2km from here, we could get to the most prosper area. There are Jusco, Live(Karaoke box), 100yen shop, Tsutaya, Ohzu library, Ohzu station and so on. My friends and I used to play at Jusco or Karaoke after school, with eating HDK tenpura. This is called "Imoten". So I have full of confidence in guidance of how to play in Ohzu! Would you play in Ohzu with me someday!? Ha-ha^^
Finally, I'll tell you the most strong reason why I love Ohzu so much. That is, my dearest people and precious memories are in here. I had lived in only Ohzu all my life. A lot of friends and I are always get along, and we could talk about many good old memories. Among all of my friend, my old basketball team mates are the best friends. We used to have many hard time on the court of Ohzu J. high school's gym. And we used to lough, fight and cry together for a long time. I really long for those days.
And the first thing my family always war
mly receive me. I'm sure I could keep myself being cheerful by their help, exactly. To tell the truth, recently my grandfather passed away. We have lost a member of family for the first time, so we are still in the saddest days we have ever had. So now I felt keenly what a blessing family is. When I go back Ohzu, I could sense that my late grandfather and my family warmly watch me. I know they continually give me selfless love and my friend give me energy. I can never thank them enough. In short, there are my treasures too much!! Therefore, I love Ohzu anyway. Here is ordinary place, but here is heaven for me! Why don't you come here once!? I'll guide you!
