Day 3 - continued into a Special Night!
After a quick lunch in the Nitishi Market we rested up and got out of the heat at our hotel for a few hours. We then went to a fabulous Dinner at little place I had noticed near our hotel that always had a crowd dining there - it was yummy and very well priced! Bosco and I split susumi (sea bream and tuna) and tempura ( the corn, peppers, yams, eggplant and chicken was all amazing!
Then we got an uber and went to the Tanabata Latern Festival, it was magical! We all got our own latern, we wrote our own special intention, attached it to the bottom of the lantern and then at 8:30 pm we all released the to the sky - tethered by our kite strings and then brought them back down after about 15 minutes for proper disposal / reuse. A totally environmental friendly event! And so pretty!
