I had a work until 3 pm on that day. After the work, I rushed to Asakusa to see the Samba Carnival. It's the first time for me to see this great festive parade!!
I took so many pictures at the carnival. It's really difficult for me to pick up some of them and discard others... I guess I'll upload 20, 30 or more festive pictures.
