Obon dancing festival.










 The weather was cloudy but it didn't rain. We held our Obon dance festival at 6 chome minipark, and I wored as the chairperson of the executive commitee. In the morning, we started the preparation. We first set up three big tents for using as stalls. Then, we carried up Japanese drums and set some PA system on the tower in the center of the park. Then we decorated the tower with flags of many countries of the world and other ornaments. Many little girls came and danced in a circle wearing colorful kimonos and they looked so cute and beautiful. The children's dance began at 6:30 and ended at 7:00. Then the sinior people whose avarage age was over eighty danced in kimono. After that, general people danced till 8:30.
  The people lined in front of every stall where they sell spit-roasted chicken meat, oden, edamame, etc.
We closed the festival at 9:00, and drank some sake and beer in the tents, and returned home at about 10:00.
