Tenjin Matsuri

July 25, 2006 right after work at around 5:45 PM I rode the train heading to Umeda to meet Gloridel and go together to watch Tenjin Matsuri a festival in Osaka. Gloridel got us free tickets from through a website to watch the boat parade alongside the Dojimagawa River.
There were already many people when we got there. I met Ivan and Romsil (these are two people I haven`t met for a long time) there. I met Raneil in person for the first time that day too. I`m not a festival virgin since I`ve watch Sinulog festival in Cebu more than once so I can`t help but expect something out of this festival. As it turns out I was a bit disappointed. Still Japanese night lights and fireworks are really nice and pretty. Ivan took a lot of pictures there. Here are some of them.
