The usual thing in matsuri: mikoshi Of course, food... Flavored ice... And desert (chocolate banana) Don't forget toys Anpanman, a famous figure in Japan! Want to drink like a baby? Mysterious giant red octopus Part of a real matsuri: music! What you can't see: people are dancing Typical of japanese folklore Young people making music The "catch a goldfish" game result: two goldfishes Goldfishes now in a place where they can be happier
