Eisa and the Blue Moon

Children were performing some Okinawan Eisa dances today. I've never tried to
play a taiko drum before but after seeing them, I hope to have a chance someday!

Such colorful, customes!

What a cutie!

He was actually very good!

As we were walking away, we caught a glimpse of November's full moon .

It was a nice way to end the day! :)

Naha Festival Eisa dance

A clip of an Eisa dance at the festival. Sorry it's so short...one of the teachers spotted me and stopped to say "Hi"!

Fun at the festival!

We headed out to the big Naha Festival to enjoy all the action. There were plenty of people, music, and food, food, food! I even saw several familiar faces as many of my students and a few teachers had the same idea for the day. Ella had a blast and loved all the attention from the friendly people..can you tell by that smile on her face? :)
