@Tabbychan: I thank you and your grandmother for your continued support of San Jose Nihonmachi.
@Captain LOLpants: I hope things will change in the near future so you can have an even more interesting visit to SJ Nihonmachi festivals.
@Chococookies: Great thanks to you and your Hetalia group... Your group's presence was very much appreciated... I wish I could have planned some sort of CosPlay event/activity for all of you, but as you can see here that there was little/no response to my inital post... And I can't get any event/activity approval unless I can demonstrate to the festival planners that people will show up... I guess it'll have to be next time...(;_;)
