手筒花火

21日は江戸浅草、火達磨本店主催の盆踊りでした。
あちこちで盆踊り大会が開催されますが、やっぱり地元のお祭りは楽しい。

Edo Asakusa Bon-Dance Festival hosted by Hidaruma Shop was on August 21st. There are many Bon-Dances everywhere, but the one at immediate community is most joyful.




日が暮れて、江戸の花火師グラさんのご協力で花火が。今回は規模は小さかったけど黄色一色の連発が新しく追加になったかな。
お城が見える広い江戸の一画で贅沢な地元盆踊りです。

With the sun down, fireworks started under combined effort by Gura the fire work master of Edo. This time the scale was small but the running fire of yellow was newly added. It was a luxurious festival using a corner of the vast Edo SIM with borrowed landscape of the Edo castle.




江戸の恒例となった手筒花火。RLの関東では館林が有名みたい。法被姿で決めてるのは私だよ。
ハッピは、越後屋さんで無料です。ここには浴衣や和服もたくさん無料で置いてあります。

Handheld firework launchers are becoming the established custom of Edo. In the real life, the one at Tatebayashi in East Japan is famous. The one striking pose with a Happi coat is me.　The Happi is a freebie at Echigoya. There are many free Kimonos here.




踊りの輪の全員が手筒を持って。筒が上を向いているときはいいけど、横を向くと大変なことに。
SLでしか出来ない快感です。

All dancing members are holding the launchers. It is OK when the launchers pointed upward, but it is a spectacle when directed sideways. This can be done only in the second life.
