This festival was nice except for one thing which was that it is designed for children. Ye-san and I got their pretty early and we wanted to stay until the evening because they would light up the snow sculptures. However there was nothing then to do for four or five hours so we went back to Morioka to look for someplace else to go. We ended going to a museum where you can make get some hands on experience doing traditional Japanese crafts. Some of the photos are here.
The highlight was I made nanbusenbei. Nanbusenbei is kind of a traditional cookie or cracker in Japan. Here are a couple of the pictures for this.
From there we went back to morioka and I grabbed some night shots there of the city skyline, which I think came out pretty good.
The final photo that I will show here is of someone who obviously missed their bus and had been waiting a while.
Yes that little guy was sitting on the bench at the bus stop that while we were waiting for the bus to come to take us back to Morioka.
This was not that exciting of a trip but it was just nice to get out and see someplace different. Here is the link to all of the photos from the trip.
Until next time,
Andrew
