Todd: OK, Yoko we were just at a festival.
Yoko: Yeah!
Todd: Do you want to talk about festivals in Japan?
Yoko: Yes, OK. So, I think in Fall we have lots of kind of festivals, but it depends on the places so...
Todd: What are some things that most festivals have, like, what can you see if you go to a Japanese festival?
Yoko: Omikoshi.
Todd: Omikoshi.
Yoko: Yes. Do you know the word?
Todd: I think so. What is Omikoshi?
Yoko: Ah, it's really difficult for me to explain in English, but Omokishi looks like a big box, lots of people, adult people try to carry together, and they usually go to temples, and they kind of celebrate a harvest or our happiness or those kind of things.
Todd: OK. Have you ever carried the Omikoshi?
Yoko: Ah, you know, I'm not a strong guy so, I've never tried it.
Todd: OK. What about foods? What kind of foods do people like to eat?
Yoko: We can see lots of small shops along the street and we can buy really Japanese food, like watagashi, it's a really sweet candy but it looks like, how do you say that?
Todd: I don't know.
Yoko: I don't know. I don't know either. White small stuff.
Todd: White small stuff.
Yoko: Yeah. Sorry. You should see it. So it's watagashi or watame. It's really popular food in a matsuri, and we can see okonomiyaki. Yeah, it's, some people say Japanese pancake, or something, but tastes different.
Yoko: It's not sweet.
Todd: It's not sweet.
