Obon is a festival for Japanese to welcome their ancestors' soul on the 13th of August. Welcoming fires light up the path from the grave sites back to their houses. Sending off fires are set three days later on the 16th to illuminate the path for the ancestors back to where they came from. Gozan Okuribi is the ceremony which the five mountains are light up with huge fire symbols. Including 大(Daimonji, meaning "big"), 妙, 法 (Buddhist law), the left daimonji, the funagata (ship) and torii (shrine gate). At 8 o'clock the biggest character 大 started to light up and brighten up the sky above, conjuring spirits and energy. It's one of those times that no matter how scattered the family members are, they would go back to gather and honor their ancestors.
At a special night like this, We Are One team gathered together to celebrate the festival and had an amazingly delicious French dinner at Paris Bis.

-五山の送り火- Paris Bis の屋上にて
京都府京都市で毎年8月16日に行われる伝統行事「 大文字五山の送り火」。
毎年大勢の人々が美しく燃え上がる五山の送り火を一目見ようと、 ここ京都市に集まります。
今年はWe Are Oneのプライベートイベントとして、 いつもお世話になっているParis Bisの屋上を借り、20時の点火を皮切りに、 送り火を楽しみました。屋上からはまず「大」の文字が見え、「 舟形」そしてもう一つの屋上からは「鳥居」 を見ることができました。
京都の夜景を一望しながら五山の送り火を見ることは何とも贅沢。 全員が何とも言えない美しい光景に酔いしれ、 誰もが京都の素晴らしさを感じたひと時だったのではないでしょう か。
毎年大勢の人々が美しく燃え上がる五山の送り火を一目見ようと、
今年はWe Are Oneのプライベートイベントとして、
送り火を楽しんだ後は、Paris Bisシェフからの特別ディナーメニュー。自家製パン、ワイン、 キッシュのサラダ、ローストビーフのポテトのピュレ添え、 そしてシナモンアイスの締めくくりと、 素晴らしいディナーを全員に提供してくださり大満足。We Are OneのTeamそして他数人の友人とがまた一段と仲を深めるこ とができした。
