When summer comes in Japan, there are 2 things you know you will have for sure: heat and festivals! In these festivals you can find  lots of interesting things to do and eat, Japanese girls wearing 
yukatas and beautiful fireworks at the end.
We went to a matsuri (festival) in a place called Mizunami. Let the pictures speak for themselves:
