Shikoku Henro 2012, Day 3

Shikoku Henro 2012, Day 3
In some of my photos you can see people wearing white clothes & conical (= cone shape) hats. This is the traditional dress for pilgrims [gyouja]. Because I was cycling, I didn`t wear them, & I couldn`t carry a walking staff [kongoutsue] either. That`s kind of a shame, because they`re very ornate & colorful, & I`d quite like to have one. Maybe next time I`ll buy one as a souvenir.

Actually, most henro pilgrims don`t use their staffs for walking - I often see groups arrive by bus or mini-van, & just before they get off the bus, they get their staffs & conical hats, then they walk from the carpark into the temple. Nowadays not many people do the full henro on foot (it takes one or two months to complete).

You are great!! Peple hate to walk recently. I think that you can ride on a biecycle wearing white clothes to your back by shouldering the walking staff. Then what name is the red lily in the second picture?
