We went to the Children's Day festival today to see 400 carp-shaped streamers strung across a river in town. Children's Day is a boy's festival here in Japan and the carp-shaped streamers symoblize boys' courage and strength. So all around town families with boys will hang these streamers up outside their homes. Bryce enjoyed seeing all the streamers and he just kept pointing and saying "Wow". The weather is beautiful here so we're trying to get out and get down by the water as much as possible.
