@boxcarblue- You have captured vibrant glimpses of life in Japan. It was fun looking at Kanbara Matsuri festival through your eyes. I can visualize how people intermingle and suddenly meet long lost friends. I enjoyed the pictures showing the people since people are the main ingredient of any festival. Thanks

I request you to take a look at my blogs when you have time. I have posted a blog about an Orange Moon . I would love to get your comments. Thanks
