Just because :-)

Every year in August, Nagano City hosts a huge festival on the streets
in the main downtown area between the train station and the temple.
We joined some friends and went to wander and watch the festivities.

The shop where Ian works is right in the middle of it all so we popped by to say 'Hi' .

And since there are so few times when I get a picture with him I couldn't resist including it here...

...just because!

Isn't he a cutie!
