Sprinkling Beans ... (1)2011.02.07

My poor English doesn't help me well to explain this traditional Japanese event here.....

On Feb 3rd, people throw beans against misfortunes and sometimes you can see some playing the roles of real demons ( I have no confidence you could imagine what it is like by reading this sentence... Please guess just like you answer a quiz ! )

A kid stopped by Udatsu Museum wearing the mask and she is eating the beans.
