Beansprouts

A traditional matsuri here at Noda. Noda is  famous for its  soy sauce. As you can see from this picture, there is something on top of the 15 meter poll, that white tank type of thing is where they kept the soy sauce before. The tradition is that each year someone will climb all the way up there, did some trick, in clued a hand stand on the top..quite scary for me, I was really praying that he would not fall.. after he did all the trick, then he lay down on his tummy and just slide down like that…I was amazed and pray desperately for his protection. At least circus has a robe hang on to the performer and he had nothing on…

We lost the pass word and now we are back! Happy! Happy!
