Lake Towada Fireworks Festival 2014

We've been in Japan long enough that some of the things we're doing are no longer "first time" happenings. This was our second time going to the Lake Towada Fireworks Festival and once again there was a chance of rain and I had to do a little convincing to get Keenan to go. Glad we went, there was no rain! Take your blanket and enjoy the festival food and drinks! My favorites are the ones that they drop into the water so they explode on the surface...stunning! Here's the link to my post about last year's festival: First festival, food and random adventuring.


The drive to the lake takes about an hour and a half depending on traffic. It's about 60 km (37 mi) from Misawa.

GPS coordinates to festival site: 40.426574, 140.892787
