Obon Odori practice has started!


Tonight was the first Obon Odori Practice. Obon is one of my FAVORITE Buddhist/Japanese Holidays. Here is an article about the Obon Festival that was held in Monterey. Salinas is having there festival this Sunday....I'll be there working in the pastry booth for my Mom. I hope we can stay for the dancing...but, that will be up to Jeff since he has to work on Monday.

Here is a picture of Neil, Jeff's Mom and Jordan with their fans....luckily it wasn't that hot...some nights we really work up a sweat!
I was surprised, Jordan did really well and Neil is doing better. Unfortunately, we will be missing this year's (and next year's) festival...I guess we will have to go to the other temple's!
