15th July 2003 - present
Pictures from the recent Gion matsuri in Kyoto. This is an annual festival that occurs in the old part of Kyoto city. Plenty of eating, dancing, drinking and merry making ensues ...
Is it an earthquake or just an unsteady OZZY hand?
You're nicked mate! Your exhaust pipe is too over-compensatory!!!
For all the Swedes out there, my favourite Swedish of all time: "dane feeta lukter fiske!"
What pretty yukata!
Some guys sitting on a float
Isabel with her inflatable Shibba Ken! Isn't it cute!
It's traditional at Japanese festivals to play this game. The object is to fish out the goldfish using a very small net. It is very difficult but endless fun!
Lovely!
Myself with some やまんば!(Yamanba) Blonde hair and perma-tans ahoy!

This is what Gion festival is all about ... the huge floats!
Beautiful lanterns
Cute kids alert, cute kids alert!
