つつじまつり at 根津神社

Monday's beautiful weather inspired me to take a walk, and I opted to visit Nezu Shrine (very close to me, but I never got around to it before).
They're having an azalea festival there, so this seemed like a perfect time.
I was right, so behold some great sights!

First, here are 4 children in a shopping cart-like device. They seemed to be loving it!


And now...... a true highlight which absolutely made my day.......

After finishing his other tricks, the monkey & trainer both waved for a photo!
