Shibuya O-mikoshi

Parading a portable shrine through Shibuya.
It seems you’re never far away from a festival in Japan. Walking through Shibuya on my way back from a meeting today I had to stop to let a mikoshi — portable shrine — pass. Gods first, I thought. After you!
About half an hour later, huge storm clouds as black as the ace of spades rolled in from the northeast and it began to rain.
