Yay.. very nice videos of the Bon dances.. It's been a couple years since I've been home (Kauai). It reminds me so much of home. Now if I could only find the songs.
Ewa was the second one. Waipahu hongwanji july 11-12. I'll try to go to haleiwa lanterns and aiea soto mission. Bon dances take alot out of me so I don't want to go to that much dances.
I went to the Haleiwa one with the lanterns. I had so much fun at that one. It was the first one I ever had the guts to dance at. Hard to find parking over there though. Do you dance when you go? Or is it just the excitement of the dance? Maybe the taiko drums ;)
Me.....dance? LOL! Last time I danced was in middle school. We learned tanko bushi. I don't know how people can dance none stop for 15 minutes. It's a really good workout though! If I was 45 pounds lighter I might try dance. I like to watch. Fukushima is a fast pace dance with taiko drums. It was tape before because of noise and now it's all live band.

Now I am getting excited to go to a bon dance again. I want to try to go to the Ewa one this year. But I think it was this past weekend too.
