Bon Odori

Knowing that some friends were attending the festival, I also decided to celebrate it together with the Japanese at the Bon Odori. According to Wikipedia, Obon (お盆?) or just Bon (?) is a Japanese Buddhist custom to honor the departed (deceased) spirits of one's ancestors. This is much contrary to what I thought Bon Odori was when I was there as a little boy.

Managed to capture some shots of them Japanese and the festival, so enjoy!
