4 year old had his first trip out with his Baba (Japanese for Grandmother) this weekend to the Kawagoe Autumn festival. I didn’t make it myself this year, more’s the pity, but here are some photos I’ve taken over the years. Information for the festival is linked after the photos.

I’ve always wanted to go to Kawagoe! I have not yet been 🙁 Your photos are definitely encouraging me to hop on the train and get out there, though 🙂
But it in the diary for next Autumn! Its lovely to visit anytime of the year, but the Autumn festival has a real buzz about it. I cry every time, seriously, I don’t know if its the music or the community spirit or the festivities, but I always get weepy eyed with emotion!
*put!!
the 18th and 19th this year…. 🙂
Unfortunately, it rained a lot this year. So I’m looking forward to visiting the festival next year. 😀
Great photos.
Yes it was a pity there was so much rain. I didn’t go this summer either; because it was too hot! Next year 🙂
I want to visit Japan one day :). Your photos are amazing.
Its a great place to visit for sure. I usually just take photos with my archaic mobile phone so the quality isn’t great, but I think people just like to see what its like here. I love your blog!
I really like the photos. Thank you, love your blog also 🙂
The festival looks great, i’ll hope to see one when i back again to Japan 🙂
Thank you for your comment. 🙂 I hope you do get to see one, I looking forward to reading about it someday on your lovely blog 😉
I do hope too 🙂
