Souls Festival
This summer Hikone had a Souls Festival. Lanterns were hung to remember the soldiers that lost their lives in World War II. Each lantern represented a soldier's soul whose life was taken during combat. Over 200,000 lanterns were hung up. The lanterns marked out a trail and at the end of the path there was a shrine for people to pray.

No updates in like over a week. How am I supposed to pass the day at work if I don't have stuff to read :-d Pictures look good...it seems like the dig is working out well for you. You need to put some birthday pictures up or something. Well...back to work or a nap
