It's time -

*shakes up friends list* YO.

It's time for Nisei Week again.

The best of the best festivals Little Tokyo does, the annual Open House that if you want to know anything about Japanese culture, and being of Japanese descent living in Los Angeles...this is your gig.

I haven't missed one in ten years. It's that good.

Traditionally, we get up EARLY and get breakfast in Chinatown...then park the car and walk, walk, walk. Dress appropriately, include a hat and plenty of water - because August is HOT in Los Angeles, and I don't mean like teh sexay.

Anyone want to come out the first weekend - which is the 18th - I'll be around, but closing weekend, I'll be up in SFO for AOD.

Need to remember to bring flowers for the Go For Broke Monument this year....

23rd through the 26th? You'll be here during the week of the festival - and the New Otani is walking distance from everything, and I do mean everything in Little Tokyo. Ask the concierge for some details - you won't regret it.

It would be a squeeze as we're traveling on the 24th, but if you're up for food on the 23rd, that's not too far for us to come and corrupt you take you to Curry House for dinner. If you in, settled and able to have a bit the first day, that is....

Thank you for the advice and the lovely offer. I'm not sure when on the 23rd we'll actually be getting into Los Angeles, though. We've reserved our room starting that evening, but we often arrive late. I know how tricky scheduling things on the day before travel can be, and wouldn't want to inconvenience you guys. I will definitely keep the Curry House in mind.

There is also a lovely kimono show charity event happening in Torrance at the Holiday Inn on the 25th, and Ore Ska Band is going to be playing at the Home Depot Center the same day.

Talk about overbooked.
