67th Black Ship Festival from Tomorrow

060518shimodaharbor01_1Tonight, when I went to Shimoda I found that a ship was decorated a lot of beautiful lights at Shimoda harbor.

"Well, Black Ship Festival will take place from tomorrow…. ."

I was going to take a piciture of that ship later, but when I went back to the harbor 2 hours later again, the decorations had already been finished.

So I am going to show a picture that I took 2 years ago…….

I took this picture from the top of Mt. Nesugata when I saw the fireworks.

During this festival some ships are decorated with lights in the night.

This is very beautiful !!
