O-bon Festival
I was connecting the new alarm clock radio I got for my birthday and happened to hear an announcement about the O-bon Festival in Japantown San Jose this Saturday and Sunday. Fortuitous! I had gone last year and it was a lot of fun, so I was excited to take Chrissy there and have her see the San Jose Taiko drum group.
We started the day by heading to Tanto for delicious Pork and Kimchi donburi. Following a few errands, we headed over to the O-bon Festival and got there just as they were setting up the Taiko drums. They played for about an hour and...it...was...awesome. Photos here. Chrissy totally wants to join a taiko drum group now (and I kind of do too for that matter). We ended our Japan Day by hitting up Azuma Japanese Cuisine for some tasty sushi.
