Old traditions and customs

It was pleasure viewing a documentary on NHK WORLD JAPAN TV Channel's 'Zero Waste Life Special'. The program features a granny's attempts to preserve old traditions even today. Her attempt to educate her grandchilden on the use of mosquito nets made me remember my beloved mother's attempts, when we were children. We enjoyed sleeping inside the mosquito nets. Those were good old days.
