Festival

There was a festival in the hometown of my father.
It was a local festival but everyone got together and enjoyed really well




Night before the main festival: A boy resting during the break 








They were wishing for good harvest in front of the main shrine in the community


o-mikoshi (portable shrine)



Men carried o-mikoshi all the way from shrine to beach 


Boys are carried to the shrine to be blessed 








Shishimai (lion dance)





On the way back to the shrine

Last wish in front of shrine : 
It started from morning and lasted until late at night
