Bon Odori 2011

Went for Bon Odori this year, 

just in case for some of you who don't know why Japanese celebrates Bon Odori..

 Why Japanese celebrates Bon Odori?

 It is a Japanese Buddhist custom to honor the deceased spirits of one's ancestors

 This is a reunion holiday whereby family return to ancestral family places and visit and clean their ancestors' graves, and when the spirits of ancestors are supposed to revisit the household altars. 

It has been celebrated in Japan for more than 500 years and traditionally includes a dance, known as Bon-Odori.

Back to topic, went there quite early (3pm) *LMAO* but it's better for us to go early

since it will be crowded later

Not going to type much, i'm kinda lazy now, so just let the picture talk
