This afternoon I headed to the Pacific Rim Festival in Chula Vista’s Bayside Park. I’ll blog more about this fun event shortly!
The highlight of my day was an incredible performance by Naruwan Taiko!
Imagine resonant, heart-pounding, pulsing beats, and drummers swinging unstoppable arms in a synchronized dance. Imagine smiles and shouts, muscles and sweat, powered by a pure love of life. For a few moments Bayside Park was stirred by magic. Hearts were lifted by thundering, unabashed joy!
I was ready to leap over the sun!

I live in downtown San Diego and love to walk around with my camera! You can follow Cool San Diego Sights via Facebook or Twitter!

You & I keep having overlapping moments … Last week I was enjoying Okinawa taiko drum dancing at the Sakura Days event tucked into Vancouver’s Cherry Blossom Festival. Is your Pacific Rim Festival in any way linked to cherry blossom time?

I’m not sure. But I’m reasonably certain there are no cherry trees down at Bayside Park! At least I’ve never seen any!

There are some Cherry Blossom’s all the way at D.C I think.
