Carnival!
Went to see M's translator perform at a drumming festival in NW Tokyo last weekend. It was a relatively small affair but quite spectacular. Yuca's drumming band performed for an hour straight and involved a team of around 45 drummers rotating in perfect sequence around 3 large drums and it was mesmerising. Rather shocking were the lack of trousers worn by men on the floats, some with no more than a g string, which rather put me off my lunch!.. I took the picture of the green dress because it was beautiful! Tonight we are off to a big carnival in central Tokyo which is the last of the summer festivals.
