There is also a Matsuri Festival in Kamogawa this Saturday and Sunday. This year the portable shrines will gather on the grassy area in front of the condo where I live on the Saturday night. It's always a good time and a great chance to get to know all the locals in your neighborhood. Unfortunately, I'll miss Saturday due to work commitments, but I'm looking forward to Sunday!
