Also, somehow
I've been given the role of Empress in the Emperor's parade
At the 2018 Nagasaki Lantern Festival.
Although people in the Prefecture will know this already,
It's truly a startling honour. Unbelievable.
My grandmother was the happiest!
I will carry out my duty with everything I've got.
It's on February 24 from 2pm to 4pm!
Definitely, please feel welcome.
Another month is over...
Thank you very much for reading.

The Nagasaki Lantern Festival appears to be a big deal. It's a tourist festival based on the traditional Chinese Lantern festival that comes two weeks after Lunar New Year.
