Aoi Matsuri - Hollyhock Festival

· Japan

There was a nice, older Japanese man from Osaka next to me also watching the procession. We had a friendly chat - he's never been to the UK, but likes Liverpool for the Beatles, and he gave me a matcha biscuit as a gift before heading off to the first temple the procession was heading to.
