Saipan Awadori Dancer's are so cute!

During the holidays, the CNMI, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands has many festivities for the locals and the tourists visiting from Japan, Korea, China, Russia, and all throughout the U.S. mainland. In Garapan, the CNMI tourist district, there are often performances on Thursday during the weekly street market throughout the year. I was able to take some photos of some of the Saipan Awadori Dancers during one of their performances. In Awadori or Awa Odori dancers are common in Japan such as the Ubon festival in Tokushima in Shikoku.
