Earth Day !!

Earth day was this Sunday! Unfortunately it has been rainy and gray here the past week but that didn't stop the festivities from happening! There was an earth day celebration at Yoyogi Park this weekend. I wasn't expecting much to be honest but I was pleasantly surprised at the turn out. There were rows and rows of vendors and activities for children (and foreigners..) and live music, etc. 

There were many vegetarian stalls and food vendors selling vegetables from around Japan, including the areas affected by the march 2011 earthquake.

We asked someone to take a picture of us in front of the sign, which he technically did... he just didn't get the 'Earth Day Tokyo' words in the picture.

A Drum performance

It was a fun day! Emelie and I participated in a henna making activity where you got to take home the henna paste that you made, and they also gave you some henna powder so you can make more at home! We tried it out a few days ago and it seems to be normal.. so far at least.
