Gion Matsuri!

Last night was the Gion Festival!
And so many people were there I was having trouble getting pictures! These are the only two I have secured so far...
Skyana and Suki
Before the festival, there were some internal Okiya squabbles about what to wear. I had just barely gotten my yukata on when we had to run out the door and climb up onto our float!

There were a lot of cool floats in the parade! Sadly,I didn't get to see all of them, what a shame!!

Though at the beginning, it was a little hard, Skyana and I made friends. Atleast I have someone I can always talk to at the okiya now!! Skyana is also a Minarai. We have been hanging out a lot lately, I guess... And getting into lots of trouble.

Plotting on our way to dance class
Recently, there was a very straightforward patron we had a bit of trouble with.
OH! And there was also another festival held by Little Yoshiwara! My friend Kisa and I attended, and though she is not a part of the Kagai world, I made sure to get her dressed up ^^ So here, we model two Minarai's Hikizuri that I have made!
Kisa and Suki



Usually, on Thursdays Arashiyama holds Ozashiki. But the other day, rather than having it in a zashiki, we were all out on the verdanda. Fireworks were shot off over the water. ^^

Oh there was also the iris odori! It was gorgeous too! ♥
