Bon Odori Season 2007

Last year, we had a blast at the neighborhood's annual Bon Odori (basically, "street festival"). This year, we found out about the festivals far enough in advance to see two of the three festivals, at 1-chome ("block") and 2-chome, both within easy walking distance from our house.

A picture is worth a thousand words, so below are a few thousand things we saw during the festivities. Our Gallery dated 08/06/2007 shows the rest.
