<\/a>If you are looking to get a\u00a0festival in, it is on and popping in Toyohashi City on July 16th!<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Toyohashi Gion Matsuri\u00a0features\u00a0hand held fireworks on Friday, and aerial fireworks on Saturday. On Sunday is the Mikoshi parade.<\/p>\n

Saturday is probably the best day to go, and in my experience fireworks and vendors selling greasy Japanese junk food are rarely far apart. If you have not tried it yet, I recommend you give \u201cTamasen\u201d a try.<\/p>\n

It is a fried egg, yakisoba, cheese, and heaping helping of mayonnaise sandwiched between a couple of really big shrimp crackers. Good stuff, but very rich. Both Friday and Saturday\u2019s festivals start at 18:00.<\/p>\n

Have fun!<\/p>\n
