Project 365..Day 9 Festival of Festivals

As you can see, I had a very difficult time choosing just one photo for today. Thought I would share the day and several photos with you. On Saturday, January 9th, we went to the Tokyo Dome for The Festival of Festivals. It was advertised as a way to experience some of Japan's 3000 festivals all in one place. They had 2 groups perform while we were there. We didn't get to watch up close but did see them on the big screens. The main focus of the event seemed to be food. Boy oh boy was there a lot of food! Several vendors offered free samples. We tried a wide variety of noms! One vendor stopped us and gave us free sushi. He asked us to tell the crowd how delicious it was. Another was so excited to meet someone from Texas. While the event wasn't what I expected, it WAS a lot of fun. I just wish we could have seen more dancers and drummers perform. When we were leaving, we saw one dance troupe and one group of drummers perform. Too bad I didn't bring my small Nikon with the video feature. I could put tons of pics here but think I will try to limit it as best I can. I can't wait to scrapbook this day. The colors are so vibrant!!!

It was sssoooo crowded!! Its was shoulder to shoulder people. I've never been pushed around so much. This made Disney on its busiest day seem like a ghost town!
