Went to fireworks in Arakawa today.

It was postponed for two month owing to the 3.11 earthquake.

Fireworks were originally created so as to show condolence to the deceased,

which is why it takes place near Obon, mid-August, when the soul of the ancestors return.

In that regards, maybe it was better to have the fireworks in August this year as well, as was originally scheduled.

Temperature was pretty low, which was wierd and unfitted with HANABI.
