I had the chance to take Kirk to the annual Obon Festival at my old Japanese School Center. It's a smaller Obon but that have all the necessities....plate lunch, dango, and bon-odori (dancing). This year, we met up with my mom and dad to eat some dinner then had a chance to watch some dancing. We ran into my friend Gary and his family. His little girl Ashley was dressed up in a yukata (summer kimono) and looked absolutely adorable! She had fun dancing next to her grandma while holding a little fan.
