Nanao and Dakeyama
Our second festival was in the city of Nanao, 65 km north of Kanazawa (this is important because Zachary rode his bike both ways!!). The festival focussed on four giant floats that were pulled through the town by townspeople and visitors alike, while carrying a dozen or so children and men who chanted and danced. This was followed by a beautiful fireworks display!! Nanao also has a beautiful harbour, where we watched the Sea of Japan while enjoying the sunshine lying on the grass!! It was a very nice, relaxing day!
