kurama fire festival

October 22, 2005

I was debating whether i should go to the Kurama Fire Festival. then i started thinking, when am i ever going to be kyoto, or kurama? never! so i decided to wait on getting a haircut that day after class and went to the festival. these pictures show what transpired that evening...


This has to be one of the RIDICULOUS thing that i've ever seen. there's like over 100 people trying to fit onto this one train.


Katherine and I trying to take a picture in the train




kids + fire = CUTE!





HEYYYYY!!! check out that japanese ass...

fire


FIRE...

FIRE!!!

Kurama Fire Festival Crew: Carlos, Alex, Katherine, Steven, Santino, Yohannes, with Terri and Jessica kneeling.


this is the crowd that we had to wait in to get on the train. MADDNESS!!


i take that back, this is the most RIDICULOUS things that i've ever seen. it's one of the fire gods, (aka pinnochio)


clockwise from the left: katherine, tara (our friend from japanese class), her boyfriend jason, takao, and santino at nikki's bar. this place has become one of the sciarc hangouts in kyoto. the owner is this nepalese movie star, up in the ranks of bollywood, but better, so i've heard. let me just say that i threw up later that night. i don't know what it is about japan, but i keep on throwing up here...
