Bon Odori 2006

July 16th, 2006

The 30th Bon Odori event was held on 15th July at Matsushita Sports Centre, Shah Alam. In Japan, Bon Odori is traditionally held from 13th to 15th July [read more]. However, here in Malaysia they only pick one of those 3 days, and usually on weekends.

It was a merry event with lots of expensive food, just like last year. Despite the fact that I got deserted by the very people I invited, I still managed to have myself a good time.

Smile, 'cause festivals are all about having fun!

It's a hot day, better keep your fan near

Kawai!

Drums await...

..and the drummers will start banging away!

The sun sets, but the festival is only beginning!

The lanterns light up, people join hands and they dance together in harmony...

I was too busy dancing and cheering myself up to bother taking pictures of people dancing. I didn’t bother to take pictures of food, either. Meh :p hope you like the pics.

[personally, I like the little girl waving her fans. LOLI FTW!]

note:
The Silentscope gallery is currently broken and needs fixing. Bleh. Will do it when I’m not so stressed out.

Also, I’m posted this to quell my anger. Being angry drains a lot of my strength.

loli ! not4chan.org/tl/ XD
