Hanabi Wa Sugoi Desu!! .....
In Japanese word " 花火はすごいです!!" Hanabi wa sugoi desu! ^_^ means "Fireworks is really enormous" ^_^ Yeah, yesterday we went to Sumida Gawa Hanabi Taikai (Sumida River Fireworks Display) It was the biggest and most spectacular firework display in Tokyo and always showned live on tv but still people prefer to went out in their droves to see it coz its really worth a look. And i can say that we're lucky enough coz we are near to the place...only 10 minutes to ride by train ^_^ so we're really excited to go there esp. Rina ^_^ yeah,...she's been crazy preparing things two days ago before the festival.She can't even decide what to bring and kept asking me..Mom what i need to bring? and what bag is cool to bring? putting all her collection of bags in front of me...i told her to decide for herself coz i dunno what she wants. So when i told her what she needs to bring? she just answered me... Mom can i bring my book with me? coz we went to City Library 3 days ago and we both borrowed books to read coz she's on school vacation now and we have much time to read at home.But im not expecting that even goin' to festival she wants to bring book, so i answered her... huh! sweetie you want to bring books there? for what? ( i gave her a tiger look) ^_^ and she just answered back... Mom maybe the firework display will not starts on time so i can read in between na. Aww what the...#$%&#$?? i said nooo...coz we don't even know if we can have a space to sit especially if we will go there late...and she just said ..ok!
So the day arrives....fireworks display will start at 7 pm. so we need to go outside at least one hour before but because Rina wants to buy something to eat, we went out at 5:30 pm. so we had much time to choose what to buy. But as we got to the station, there was already a full packed of people rushing too so hubby told Rina that we have to go and get to the place much early and just buy anything to eat there when we arrived.Usually people eats while waiting like everybody do's on picnics so childrens are really happy for that.So we bought some snacks and choose the best place to sit... am really happy to see felllow Filipinos,Indians,and many other foreigners who's wearin' summer kimono's (yukata) there and we just shared hi, hellos and smiles. Am thinkin' to take many pics. to post here but only to find out that i don't have my camera with me.... SUCKS!!! yeah, i forgot to bring it because of all the rushes many days ago ( excuses again ^_^) nooo its true guys so we decided to take pics. on our own mobile camera's...hubby, rina and me but as expected its not good coz of dark shots and you can't see the real colors of the fireworks so i decided to googled ( luv ya Google ^_^) some free sites of Tokyo Fireworks professional photographer and they're sharing their personal pictures for free. So enjoy the shots here guys and feel the great and amazing colors of hanabi! Enjoyyyyyy!!

yes, during diwali we do lit fireworks n crackers......but its not like the way you have over there n entire city celebrates together...here every family get their own stuff n have their own show...so its different BTW why cant i see you in tiger looks?? Haa? You might be lookin cuteee =)
Ravi,
... see i remember Diwali na ^_^ yeah, the only difference is japanese celebrates hanabi in entire Japan like the way they celebrate sakura(cheery blossom) season every year.!
And usually they do it in Rivers so its more beautiful to look at.
..so u want to see me really in tiger look mode huh? well, ill think of that yaar, ill let u know when :P
..have a great week ahead!wake up early and dun be late in college ok? hehe... ^_^
..ingatz po!

the japs really know how to do the brightest and most colorful fireworks display. makes me really wonder they can produce all those wonderful shapes and configuration. puro labentador at kwitis lang kasi ang nakikita ko sa atin eh.
OMG Hanabi is sooooooooooooo BEAUTIFL!
lol @taking books to fireworks! hahahaha!
aww u forgot ur camera? It really is annoying when that happens ha. Well I have noticed that even if I take pics of fireworks from my GREAT camera, it never comes out quite like the professional ones.
Glad u had lots of colorful fun Kath HUGGGGGGGGGZ!
Keshi.
Kath!
You had a great colorful weekend.
Loved to read the sweet behaviour of kid Rina! She is really a sweet child.
Seeing the pictures I feel the actual scene will be more gorgeous or rather "花火はすごいです", i mean "Hanabi wa sugoi desu!", in case u don't know Japanese! ^_~
he he he he...
Ka Uro,
... yeah, Japs really do their best preparation for this festival celebration once a year so it'll came for amazing one as expected.
... haha ^_^ oo sa atin kase nakakatakot pa mga fireworks, dito disiplinado sila masyado... licenced persons lang gumagawa ng firecrackers and they're doin' the display on rivers so everybody can enjoy!
..have a great week ahead!
cheers,
-kathy-
Keshi,
... yup hanabi is really amazing, u dun have the words when ur lookin' at it and when the best colors come up in the sky ...all people are clapping and have the smiles on their face.
..the lovers huggin', holding hands and sometimes kissin' and tellin' each other that.." hey this summer will be the best for us na" hmm... ^_^ see im busy too lookin' around haha...sooo cute!
... ** lol @taking books to fireworks! **
... hehe, yeah and she's serious tellin' me that so when i said noo, she didn't have any words after just.... ok Mom! ^_^ instead she brought the little pink bear w/ her.
... ** Well I have noticed that even if I take pics of fireworks from my GREAT camera, it never comes out quite like the professional ones. **
... yeah thats true sweetie, i wud not captured this amazing colors even if i have my camera with me ^_^ only professional can do it perfectly like this.
