Bon Odori 2008!

Last Saturday, the long awaited annual Bon Odori festival was finally arrived! I’m very excited about this event because it was fun! Bon Odori in Malaysia was celebrated in less associated with Buddhism and more with Japanese culture. This year’s edition was a little different because I was one of the volunteer staff there to distribute fans. I’m so happy that I can contribute my little part to the great event. πŸ˜€

The event is so alive and many people attended this event. Everyone is enjoying the event, dancing, eating and getting with friends. I can see many Japanese dressing in traditional wearings and the little kids are cute! Well many Malaysian also wear Yukata too. Well, while duty I also not forgetting bringing my humble camera and shoot some pictures. Overall it is a fun and tired day. What a wonderful experience, and I will have the same passion for next year’s too. Saikou na Ichinichi! ζœ€ι«˜γͺδΈ€ζ—₯!
