Kishiwada Danjiri Matsuri 2009

For the past several years, I have joined some friends to join in the spirit (and share in the local hospitality) of this festival, held the third weekend of every September in Kishiwada, in the south part of Osaka Prefecture. I took fewer photos than usual (the imbibing of some friends’ hospitality went on until nearly dusk this year), but here are a few samples of what we saw.
