About Sumer festivals have invaded all corners of Japan.Today we had our Summer Festival in the community where I live. Children are those that enjoy the most these celebrations. All such festivals start by the various portable shrines being carried to the grounds where the festival will take place after having been carried all around the community. Here is one such episode.

Yoshiyuki Tanaka   {K:13580} 8/11/2006
The whistle guy keeps the tempo as everybody is uttering one call" wasshoi", specific for shrine carriers at festivals. Thanks for visiting, Jessie!
