Autumn festival in my town

My town held its autumn festival at the 八色の森 Yairo no mori park near my house. It was a beautiful day.

It was a bigger and more fun event than I thought. Or maybe everyone just wanted to come out after being holed up at home for the past 2 days cos of the tropical depression. There was a hot air balloon ride, music and cheerleading performances by some high school kids, traditional Japanese folk dance performance, game stations for kids and the usual food stalls.
