Gion Festival, Nose's Trip and Summer's classes

Yesterday's morning, I went to Kyoto for Gion Festival, it's one of the three biggest summer festival in Japan. Woke up early in the morning, and then set to Kyoto, arrived there exactly at 9 am. It was raining lightly but still people were crowding around. The Gion festival has 31 of decorated kinda cars ( not cars, i don't know how to explain ), the festival was great and it was a worth to see ! ^.^
The other big festival will be in Osaka this 24th and 25th, but I am not sure I'd be able to see them as I will have to work both on those days...: ( I don't want to miss it since I am already here in Japan, let's see later..

My summer vacation has begin ( from today !) and this afternoon at 1pm, I will be going to Nose for hiking ( will be back tomorrow, it's only one night's trip). It sounds fun to me now ( I was reluctant to go in the beginning but now I guess I need refreshing ).

Aaaa, I am glad that my headmaster allows me to take summer classes. Wow!!! that means I still can learn more Japanese in my holiday ! Yeah, anyway, I won't have works in the morning, so this is really a great opportunity !
