Captain Ces's Log #10 [Summer Festivals]

 Ahoy Mateys!

Summer is here! Are you excited about the upcoming summer festivals? From traditional Japanese festivals, to major rock music festivals, the summer season is full of festivities in Japan!

If you`re up for some music, Fuji Rock Festival is just the place to be! Fuji Rock features tons of artists from all around the world! American artists, Japanese artists, English artists, etc.

July is right around the corner, so that means Tanabata is on it`s way! Sendai`s Tanabata festival is one of the most famous in Japan!

Kyoto is most famous for their Gion festival!

Making our way down south, Okinawa`s Eisa festival attracts visitors from all over the world!

Don`t forget to put on your Bingata if you`re planning on visiting Okinawa!

And we musn`t forget Obon! The first day of Obon is a very special day, as it happens to be my birthday! lol!

Back home in Virginia, I often attended the Watermelon Festival with my mother and sister. Many farmers and vendors offer free samples of watermelon throughout the streets of Carytown, Virginia. Did you know watermelon in Virginia costs about $4-$5? They are very delicious!
