Obon service

When we went to Izamiya recently I took a look at their bulletin board and managed to catch a glimpse of Obon service organised by the Steveston Buddhist Temple happening on Sunday,so decided to go check it out:3

Took me about half an hour to walk there lol

Gotta buy tickets to eat,drink and play games and they take cash only ^^;/

Part of the food selection has been made to cater more to the Canadian’s tastebuds (there’s cotton candy,hotdog,beer ^^;)

I was too lazy to queue up for the ricebowls (Japanese curry/and chicken karaage I think) so opted for gyozas instead…verdict? I won’t pick that again if I attend it again LOL! I should have tried something from the Bakudanyaki vans instead,not sure what I was thinking lol maybe was just too lazy to join a long queue ^^;

Center stage where dancers will form a circle around ^^

A lot of people brought their kids dressed up in Yukata,totemo kawaii ^O^

Some lovely moms and granmas,also dressed in lovely Yukatas danced along in the circle:)

I did not stay too long as I need to go home to feed the furkids:P It’s really nice to see all the colourful yukatas,it was definitely the highlight of the service. ^^

I brought a small doll –Mokotan with me this time ^^
