Like every other obon I've been to, the Higashi Honganji Buddhist Temple obon had shaved ice for sale. The shaved ice, or snow cone, booth is one of those things that you can always count on. This particular shaved ice included sweet beans and condensed milk, and it had already partially melted. :(

The 2007 Higashi Hongwanji Buddhist Temple Obon was held on Saturday, July 28 and Sunday, July 29. For more information on the temple, please visit The Higashi Honganji Buddhist Temple website.
