A summer Obon Festival, Tokyo
The evening was hot and muggy with tropic air brought up by a passing typhoon, but the crowd -- both locals and tourists -- was out in full force and having a good time. ...
Forgot to take photos of the food stalls, everything from takoyaki, fire-grilled yakitori to kebabs!
Maybe next time, thanks for looking! ο»Ώππ
Too badβ¦
But good on the other hand - I would probably go straight to ravenous, without an ability to quickly rectify the situation π
Simply wonderful π
Sadly nothing comparable on the cards for me tonight π€·π»ββοΈ
The atmosphere -- w/music, dance and drums, food and drink -- was nice indeed ! π
Thanks for looking, Filip !
Thank you, TMD π
It was a great time, indeed, in an almost surreal setting in the glow of lanterns.
Thank you for looking, mdg π
Aside from all the tropical humidity, the passing typhoon did make for some dramatically fast moving clouds above our heads!
W went through a couple of them when we lived there...
...along with many earthquakes. The amount of rain was unlike anything I had experienced as a California boy : )
