Miki Hardware Festival



The city of Miki isn't very big, about 75,000 people. But the claim to fame for this town is hardware. Hammers, knives, saws, just tools in general. Even before I came here, I did a search online and all I could find was information about hardware. But living here, the city is as ordinary as it comes.

This weekend happened to be the Miki Hardware Festival. Anna and I got there late on Sunday, so we didn't get to see much. We did see a bit of Taiko drumming though. And there are a lot of booths selling all kind of wares, from food, to used goods, to scooters, to of course, tools. Gareth and Allison were in a sawing competition, but too bad we missed it. :(
