Zama-no-Otako-age means Zama Big Kite Flying. Our fabulous friends Kenji and Sumiko took us to the Big Kite Festival. It was so great to have them with us, because instead of guessing what everyone was doing we had expert tour guides to answer all of our questions.
Here is ceremonial dancing to bring good luck to the kite flying.
There were so many men and women helping to get the kite into the air. The rope it was connected to was huge. One poor man got trampled and had to be taken off by ambulance. It was very exciting to see it being lifted up.
Airborn!
Here is Kenji spoiling Allie with a shoulder ride. This man is in his 70s and you would never know it. He is unbelievable.
