Bon Odori

Yeh.. finally decided to go to Bon Odori at Shah Alam.. the nearest parking we could find was at the JVC plant and walked over.. saw a few dressed in gothic cosplay costumes eventhough they should not be allowed into the stadium.. many dressed in kimono too.. like the 3 kawaii gals above.. :)


the drums play started at 7pm sharp.. after that we walked to the food stalls hoping for some yakitori kinda japanese food.. from afar we saw the hazy or smoke coming from that food direction.. I thought it might be the bbq smoke who knows it turned out to be the sand dust as too many walking around the sand ground near the food stalls.. it was so terrible until after I left the place I could find dust in my nostril.. o_O


anyway I tried their grilled squid for RM10.. grilled beef balls for RM6 and mocha ice cream for RM5.. afterall it was a little japanese fair.. they even set up a temporary sushi king rotate sushi bar for patrons makan while standing around.. livita was selling at RM1 each.. even yakult was having a recruitment booth..


the most heartwarming of the night was seeing hundreds or thousands joining circle and bon dancing together no matter you knew the person next to you or not.. it must had been a fun night for the whole family!
