Matsuri

Went to Shibuya to meet meet some friends and drop off contraband goods. Brought a camera, just in case, and was rewarded with a small festival about to start near that famous crosswalk (the busiest in the world). I don’t know what festival it was. (Awa-dori?)

Edit (2009/05/24): This was the Shibuya Ohara Festival.  Thanks to I Rub Your Blog.

I don’t understand what it’s about, but it does not diminish the energy you feel from these people.
