Sawara Festival 2022・4K HDR

🕒 07/17 12pm🌡️ +25℃ 🚶‍♂️4.15km
Another big festival is held next weekend after Narita Gion festival in Sawara district of Katori city. In the past it was separate town Sawara. This festival features dashi floats similar to Narita festival but way bigger. Sawara station is quite remote, it takes not only more time on a train but even the number of trains is small. Trains go every one hour or even less often.
When I came to Sawara station it was raining. As the festival was not going to start during the rain I waited an hour. As I was getting late for another event I had to hurry to the train because I would have to wait another hour for the next one.
Found 3 cats, two before I came to festival area and one at the festival 😹😹😹
