Gifu Nobunaga Parade

Oct

5

On Sunday the 2nd of October there was a parade in Gifu to celebrate Oda Nobunaga, a famous lord in the 16th century. This parade is held every year, but this was the first time I`d been to it. For me, the highlight (見所) of the parade was when participants in samurai costumes fired guns. What a noise! But for many kids, the highlight was the Disney characters on two cars; Mickey & Minnie were on the first one, and Donald, Daisy, etc were on the second one.

Grammar:
- It`s usual to use `the` before ordinal numbers (順序数) e.g. "on the third (3rd) of April", "on the fourth (4th) floor", "The first time I went there...", "at the eleventh hour (= 土壇場に)"
