It has been a tradition that our danjiri meet up with that from another shrine close to ours on the second day of the festival. So this event builds cooperation and friendship within and among the local neighborhoods. There are taiko and dance performances by children followed by the crowd pleasing mochi maki. I seem to be the only one avoiding the rice cakes as I dodge them behind my camera as they are being tossed down from the tops of the danjiris.
