We got the pics up for Sagicho Festival. People burn old decorations at this festival. Then while the fires are raging crowds of people rush in with pointy bamboo poles, to roast mochi. This is one of two fire-centric festivals we have been to lately. I'll try to get the pictures from another burnin festival, Omizuokuri, up soon.

We also got a pro account on Flickr. We are going to try to get a lot of photos up our Flickr page.
