Ahi's First Bon Dance. :D - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Ahis_Mama · 08-08-2011, 01:43 AM

Every year I attend the Bon Dance we hold in the neighboring town. Bon Dance is a Japanese festival where they hold a dance to honor the departed spirits of one's ancestors. They play the taiko drums and other Japanese instruments. They have lots of good food too. Ahi actually enjoyed it. I thought she was going to be afraid of the loud drums. She wanted to run around and greet everyone but she hasn't had all her shots yet. There were actually a few other dogs there too.

That sounds like so much fun! What a sweet photo of you too. Was Ahi scared at all of the sounds?

You are lucky that you get to come here every year! Is it for business or vacay? If I could I would be going to Texas every year.

I keep telling myself every year that I will join in and dance. lol Just too shy too. She was not scared at all. My house is loud(all the kids), we run errands a lot and my radio is loud and windows are down, so I guess it was nothing new to her. LOL All she concentrated on was the smells of the food. LOL A girl after my own true heart.
