Iburahashi
You know we have been in Japan a long time now, because we are now posting pictures of events that happened last year and are already on here!! This weekend we went back to Iburahashi for the Fighting Fish Festival, our very first festival here in Japan, and still one of our very favourites!! This year was also really cool, as the town is divided into two teams that carry giant fish around town, and finishes with a bonfire outside of the shrine! It is really neat, and the whole town comes out to celebrate! This is a festival that reminds you how great and magical it is to be in Japan. A special highlight this year was my friend Yuta-- here is the little boy in the picture. I met him at the festival, and he was so cute and kept dancing around, and then he would hold my hand as we followed the fish throughout town, so that I had to keep returning him to his mother!
