Exciting Time

Submitted by: Mary Sunada (Cerritos, California, USA) 

Three single ladies in our 20’s enjoying and participating in the opening ceremony of the Nisei Week Japanese Festival in Los Angeles, California during the late 1970s. My sister Marian, myself, and my high school classmate, Kiku, performed three Bon Odori dances under the Sensei, Hanagyagi Rokumine.  It was an exciting time for us that we will never forget.
