Finally time to post some blogs again. It seems like I have been so busy for the last few weeks, but here are some updates. After climing Mt. Fuji and getting a good night sleep, I decided to check out the Azabu Juban festival, which is one of the biggest festivals in Tokyo. Over just the weekend the festival brings in over 100,00o people. Eventhough I went on the last night of the festival a few hours before it finished, there were thousands and thousands of people there. And of course enough time to eat the great food and drink some beers =). The festival had music and tons of booths for food, games and gifts which spanned about 10 blocks or so. I guess it is kind of like the PB block party in San Diego, but 10x the people ><.
Take a look at this street and all of the people on it. WOW!!
Stopped to watch some of the music. This guy was the Japanese Kenny G,
lol. Nah, he was damn good and was very entertaining to watch.
One booth of thousands making food. This is one of my favorites, "
Okonomiyaki" which is a Japanese pancake. Yummy.
The
yoyo balloons.....reminds me of when I was a kid in Japan visiting.
One of the games you can play. You scoop goldfish into a small bowl using a thing that looks like a round fly
swatter, but has paper in the middle, so when you get it wet and the fish move the paper tends to break. The more fish you catch, the better chance you have of taking a fish home with you.
Same concept as above, but you catch turtle using this
wafer cup that breaks and gets soggy after you get it wet.
Looking at the festival from above as it finished from my friends house. As you can see there are still a lot of people still there.
