Well, as I already mentioned before, I'm really pretty busy here in Japan. But now I want to tell you,  or better show you photos, about the Bon-Odori we helt at my working place on Aug. 3rd and 4th! 

It was really a nice experience! First I thought, that I have to work the whole time, but all I had to do was to look pretty in my Yukata *haha*. Well and I danced together with my colleagues from the dayservice. It went pretty well, thought I only time to practice 1 (!) day before the event in the lunchbreak *haha*. 

Everyone complemented me, because the thought I looked so pretty in my Yukata. Oh my I'm not used to so many compliments xD But I think they just wanted to be nice and well here in Japan I am the exotic one who looks different. 

We as well had a small 'hanabi' (firework) at the end. It wasn't that spectacular as the really big ones, but it was still nice. 

After the event we as well helt a small 'nomikai' (drinking together after work). It was fun to talk to everyone, because usually I can't talk with everyone during working time, because we are all busy. 

Well sometimes we have some smalltalk too during working time. ^^

 I am thinking about writing about my work here too. Maybe I will make a small post about it after my internship ended. Hope anyone is interessted?

The Bon-Odori lasted for two days, so I wore 2 different Yukata :D

my first and my favourite Yukata! I just love the colours and the design *___*
