Bon Odori





Last night I went to the bon dance held by the Manoa Koganji Temple with a group of friends - including "Kekiinani" (Renee). Sometimes the choice of songs was quite amusing (like "Elvira" by the Oak Ridge Boys), and it is not everyday that you see ladies dressed in a traditional Japanese kimono doing a line dance (!). Besides the bon dancing, they also had taiko drummers which was a special treat.

The color images are really vibrant. I can't get over how you do color so well. Looks like you and Renee had a good time.
