Samba Festival

Our little city had another festival on August 7th. This one wasn't quite as big as the previous one, but it was still fun! We got to watch some dancing, Japanese and Brazilian style!

There is bamboo with pieces of paper tied to them that are hanging over the street. It is called tanabata and is celebrated around this time of year. The pieces of paper are peoples wishes or prayers.
