Lil Bit More JOG

 Just as I publish a post about JOG, yet another cultural event happens there that's worth recording.
The summer festival called Obon, sometimes just called  Bon, is a joyful celebration of the dearly departed, and a moment of reflection about all the positive ways in which our ancestors near or far  have affected our lives, a sort of spiritual giving of thanks.
Looking down from the castle at the party venue
Mint B's region is a classic, with Cuteulala's castle as the backdrop to the main dancing area. There's a cool romantic midsummer moonlight feel to the sim, perfectly contrasted by the red and white colors of the festival - those are lucky colors!
I really love the little ghosties that dance around the central tower or yagura.
