4 year old had his first trip out with this 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.

- Samurai on horseback

- Okonomiyaki
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 🙂
