Susono Awa Odori, 2009

This was a fantastic weekend that began with a relaxing Friday night and Saturday afternoon, leading up to our local festival on Saturday evening.

We've been to the Awa Odori almost every year since we've been in Susono, and this was just a fun as previous ones - lots of festival food at the yatai (food stalls), cheerful local people, and enthusiastic dancers.

Less talk, more pics...











And, I also shot a bit of video with the Nikon D90. I stitched some of the clips together for the final video below. It's just over three minutes long, and could be boring in the middle, but it shows various parts of the Awa Odori, and gives an idea of what downtown Susono is like...
