Naochan's PANORAMATSURI

Waaaaaa, I do not care about Friday the 13th because yesteray was the best day in the world!

Naochan was having a PanoraMatsuri at her house in the mountains outside of Okazaki and it was oh so grandeur!
The night before, harassed by an elderly golden retreiver, we took possession of the garage-like shed and around a fire in a big tin can we were jamming and jamming until we almost got caught by fresh aired misty dawn. NaoPapa had a couple and was in the proud parent mood enough to show us his home made shochu spiced up with a bunch of about 4cm long mountain bees for taste (the bees that by which if you get stung twice you die-one to go for Katou-kun).
He also went to dig out a bamboo shoot at 1am and made a bamboo miso shiru for us, since bamboo is best when freshly dug out.

It rained hard all night.
As the morning approached we could see the faint shadows of clouds breaking and when we woke up it was hazy with humidity in the air, but the sky was almost blue, almost bright and thus our spirits thrived and one as the other they raised up up up until we were all spinning in the spring morning extasy of life.

And then everybody came. We all settled ourselves around, took out our handicrafts, and under the pretense of being serious merchants, we visited each other's stalls, talked, laughed, listened to music, cried and danced...we played and played and played until it was time to go home and thats when we played some more.

なおちゃん☆ありがとう☆

The plan is to upload one CD a day, so slowly my whole Japanese life might be viewable ^__^
