Look at me!!! Looks cool isn't it... haha. (Although it is quite big for me, but oh well... who cares.)<br /><br />Was going to get my own yukata but Singapore sells it for 100+ each. Expensive isn't it? Never mind, I'll get it somehow when I go to Japan.<br /><br /><~~~ Ben in Yukata <br /><br /><br />Best segments of the Natsu Matsuri was the Bon Odori, Japanese Folk dance which everyone will participate in it and dance till the night is over. It wasn't easy to move around in yukatas, but I like the fun with everyone around. Some group shots of everyone in Natsu Matsuri, my fellow taiko drum players: <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_UYFzrwBYoQA/RtKHTTRcvII/AAAAAAAAAA4/t_QjOAnnIxk/s1600-h/P2110021.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_UYFzrwBYoQA/RtKHTTRcvII/AAAAAAAAAA4/t_QjOAnnIxk/s320/P2110021.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103290093424917634" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Yukata Gang<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_UYFzrwBYoQA/RtKHtjRcvJI/AAAAAAAAABA/J6mdEh5UYQ4/s1600-h/P2110030.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_UYFzrwBYoQA/RtKHtjRcvJI/AAAAAAAAABA/J6mdEh5UYQ4/s320/P2110030.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103290544396483730" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Taiko guys <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_UYFzrwBYoQA/RtKIJTRcvKI/AAAAAAAAABI/dfGY4AmJvkw/s1600-h/P2110023.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_UYFzrwBYoQA/RtKIJTRcvKI/AAAAAAAAABI/dfGY4AmJvkw/s320/P2110023.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103291021137853602" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Suwa Taiko<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1901912013941747744-1451769444622140391?l=benchii.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Ben.chii - 小本＜小さい勉＞noreply@blogger.com1
