Co-hosted by YokosoNews and Mie Life Magazine
What a year we have been through. But it's about to end the hardship. So let's go over the year which is about to go away, and cerebrate the year coming.
YokosoNews and Mie Life Magazine present, "The Year Going, The Year Coming - The Year 2012 Countdown Live Cast at Kazami Guest House in Ise, Mie, Japan" starts at 10pm on Saturday, December 31, 2011 (JST) for 3 hours.
Katz and Sarah from YokosoNews, Daniel from Mie Life Magazine are planning to join the "family" who stay at Kazami Guest House to cerebrate the coming year.
Ise Japan is known to have the Japan's most sacred shrine, Ise Jingu. Over 8.6 million people came to pray at Ise Shrine to thank during 2010.
Kazami Guest House is located a few minutes walk from one of Geku, one of the Ise Shrine. The building was based on 80-year-old Japanese Inn (Ryokan) converted into a youth hostel.
You're welcome to join via social timeline and look back the year 2011. Then we will talk about the year 2012.
There are still some room available at Kazami Guest House, reserve your room by calling them now, and join the live cast with YokosoNews and Mie Life Magazine!
After the live cast, YokosoNews and Kazami's guests will be visiting the Ise Shrine (no live cast)
The First Sunrise 2012
Later, we live cast the First Sunrise of 2012 from Chiyozaki Beach, Suzuka, Japan.
Japanese people go see the first sunrise of the year to pray for their fortune. YokosoNews is planning to live cast the first sunrise of 2012 whereas many parts of the world are still in the year 2011.
Let's enjoy the future a bit early with YokosoNews.
