Shimada Mage Matsuri Procession

A procession of the dancers of the Shimada Matasuri moving from one site of the festival to the next. It is at this point that it really digs home how small this Matsuri is: They didn't even get to close off the entire road. Instead, the dancers and attendants walk down one half of the road while road wardens route the traffic from both directions around them on the other lane.
