Misawa Tanabata Festival- Part 3 (Street Food and Games)


Look at the outfits of those 2 girls :-) compared with the old guy on the left LOL




The machine on the left is where you get your ticket, and the prize are the stuffed animals/toys



These sodas are not real sodas they are floating devices :-) or floaty??? (whatever!) , you'll definitely get one of these when you buy a ticket for 500 yen, the grand prize is a huge stuffed animal; the machine ticket is the same as above


Catching gold fish, 500 yen with that little scoop




Catching toy balls



This is how they make tako yaki (tako means octopus)


I don't know the name of this food, but it looks like a hotdog with bones instead of sticks inside hehehe



hamburgers



choco bananas, bananas covered with chocolates



I don't know the name of this food, the toppings are pork



I bought two sticks of these chicken nori or barbecue (that's what I thought) actually they are chicken skins barbecue :-D, 200 yen each stick


friendly Japanese old man selling chicken skins

    My mouth is watering. And the first picture does make a funny fashion statement. Of course, I can't understand why the guy is looking in the wrong direction.

    ON the first picture, at least the old man got the sock color right (black).
    Ang cute ng festival na to! All your photos of the food remind me why I always gain weight when I come back from Japan.

    Of the different food you showed, I'm curious to try the Tako Yaki. I'm not keen on the barbecued chicken skins - the worst for my bad cholesterol level he he!

    Floating device? Plaything in a pool or something?
