Okinawan Dancers in Shimoda

I have actually had these pictures for quite some time, but never got around to posting them.

These are from an Okinawan dance performance that I saw… in Shimoda (on Honshu, far from Okinawa). I love how colorful their costumes are. I have been many places in Japan, but Okinawa is one of the places I have yet to visit. Some day…

I’m not even sure if these performers are actually from Okinawa – but they very well could be. Anyway, doesn’t really matter does it!

In case you missed it back in 2005, here are some Okinawan dancers in Osaka!
