Here’s a little video I made tonight from the Olympia Obon last Saturday. It was raining very hard for most of the day, but the rain cleared up just in time for the festivities.

    every year a Waikiki hotel use to hold a bon dance in their parking lot during the summer. Unfortunately, the new owners discontinued what had become somewhat of a tradition. The participants were visitors from all over the world and they all joined in dancing in the circle some less adroit than others. It was a treat moreso for the non-Japanese tourists.
