O-Bon

It's summer! That means two things. Mountain apples are in season.
And it's Bon Dance season too.

This weekend was the Bon Dance in my home town.
Held at the Wahiawa Hongwanji. 

Shave ice, My favorite Bon Dance treat. 

My Grandma. <3 
Fully decked out in her Yukata. 

 You're never too young....

 or too old to dance. 



My favorite dance...and pretty much all the "younger" crowds favorite dance is the Fukushima.
The music is played live, on Flutes and Tyko drums. 

The song plays for 15 minutes.
(Which is a really long time to be running and jumping around in a circle)

I love these soda can lanterns. 


Had to have this shirt. All funds go to helping Japan. 
They're having a dinner to raise more funds in July Fyi. 

a hui ho malama pono! 


Piece. Out
