Has anyone been to the Bon Odori fair before?.....silly me , didn't quite know bout the event until Friday night when Zi Yang texted me and asked me to accompany him to the fair. He said there would be lot's of fun and seriously, it was oh so fun....At first when I asked him, he told me that it's a Japanese ghost festival...so I was like ...but it's actually some sort of Japanese carnival where people experience the Japanese culture with Japanese food, dance , e.t.c...it's an annual event though and this year is the 32nd Bon Odori 2008.




So, Zi Yang picked me at 5.30 p.m , after my dance class...and we headed to Shah Alam. We were chatting in the car on the way there when we came to this topic about the price of Japanese food...then both of us went like ' Oh uh', we actually forgotten to bring enough money cause we were rushing out from home.....how silly...then we had no choice but to go and look for the nearest ATM machine. Luckily, we found one nearby , upon reaching the stadium.lol.






Reached the place and the traffic was heavy, took quite some time to look for parking because there were so many people there , all heading towards the same direction. When we entered the place, the first thing that came into our mind, FOOD.....both of us were quite hungry that evening so yeah...but I tell you, the place was so crowded that we could hardly survey the type of food sold, so we just went to one of the stalls and bought the food there...










there it is, the unagi and crab roll, and the others , not sure what is it called








yummy..







Zi Yang : He was so eager to try how does that taste like










and it's not bad ...lol









He insisted on taking this photo....haha


but that was really filling...had just one and I was already half full.










= )




After eating, we walked around the stadium while waiting for the performances to start. While walking around , I came across many young kids dressed in kimono.....and they look so so cute, most of them are real Japanese , the others are locals who came dressing in the same outfits.







the first girl I saw .....pretty right?









three other pretty girls ...like their kimonos...











this cute little boy,he actually lifted both his fingers and posed for the pic...his mother was laughing.












Later, we had ice cream.....our dessert











While watching performance, this little girl who sat next to me caught my attention, so I took a pic of her.












We joined the cultural dance where all of us surrounded the stage and made a huge circle, and followed the dance steps shown by the dancers on stage....everyone enjoyed this part of the fair the most.













the amount of people there at Bon Odori 2008.










= )











Left the place at 9.30...had lot's of fun....experienced something new (just me,I know...haha) , and if I have the opportunity, i would want to go again next year, this time bringing more people there as well...okay, that's it for now, time for bed gain......





Adioz !
