The Leaky Cauldron reports that this was from the Matsudo Isetan Event (this is in Chiba Prefecture ... almost directly to the East of Tokyo). Anyways, the pictures are similar to the props/costumes in the Shinjuku Isetan Event (in inner-city Tokyo). My host-mum had sent a video of everything, but I had no way of sharing it with everyone

I'm glad to see these pictures surfaced
And, the memories begin to flood back

This is the time of the year that I would love to be in Japan ... not just because of HP, though

. Hopefully, I'll be able to go back and visit everything soon!
