Bon Odori

Catching Fish, A live performance from the Wonder Girls, Japanese fireworks, a great way to spend a Saturday night.

Manila has a lot of international schools, and last Saturday we went to the Manila Japanese School to celebrate Bon Odori

Amongst the dancing around a big drum, there were lots of food stalls (for Siew Gin), and places to catch fish (for the Kids, well okay for Siew Gin) and live performances from the school kids

The event finished with a pretty good firework show, which probably explains why the school fees are so high !!

Here are a few snapshots
