It is finally entering the rainy season. It is seasonal when the hydrangea blooms in Japan if it is said the rainy season. The snail is associated if it is said the hydrangea.

They were made by Sakura Hotel Staff, and hunged up in Sakura Cafe Hatagaya!

As one of Japanese culture, children hang them up to wish for better weather.

Teru Teru Bozu means "shine, shine shaven-head" literally,  and is a lucky charm depiciting Buddhist monks praying for good weather.
