BON ODORI



We visited the Bon Odori Festival at Tacoma Buddhist Temple. It's a Buddhist "day of the dead" celebration of ancestors. Inside the temple, we participated in an Obon service. Then we watched Taiko drumming and people dancing various "folk dances" from different regions of Japan. There was also food, booths, and a beer garden, but those lines were too long.
