Another Bon Odori

Neesa chan's nursery school must have signed a 10-year-contract with the city hall or something. This is the second time we witnessed the same type of performance by the kids (and teachers) at the same 'matsuri' (festival).
Not only was tonight's repertoire shorter than the one they had at the school ground on Wednesday, but so was Neesa chan's costume. I decided to let her wear a 'jinbei' rather than the normal 'yukata' worn during Bon Odori since she only has one 'yukata'. Besides, she was excited when she found out that Mariko had given her a pink 'jinbei' and could not wait to wear it. FYI it is not common for Japanese girls to wear a 'jinbei', what more during Bon Odori. Well, I like the idea of being abnormal. Neesa chan even wore a pair of baju kurung for her Bon Odori at the 'matsuri' last year! Tehehe... I realize one thing:it is much easier to don a pair of 'jinbei' than a 'yukata'. Will definitely buy a lot of 'jinbeis' as souvenirs for nieces and nephews :)
