What a great day! I enjoyed driving to Hamilton even it was a nice traffic jam π.
It is hot day as well so I brought a big bottle of green teaπ΅!
My booth is ready! It’s a bit windy, so I need to make sure all items are protected from being blown away.
Suikawari is highlighted in the event!
What is Suikawari (γΉγ€γ«ε²γ)?
Suikawari is a fun Japanese summer tradition where people take turns trying to smash a watermelon while blindfolded! It’s often played at beaches, parks, or summer festivals, making it a beloved seasonal activity for families and friends.
After smashing watermellon, they shared some with us. It was so tasty!
Thank you for having us and see you next time!
