Obon, feastival for commemoration of the ancestors

The Obon holiday is very important in Japan, and so two days National holiday are dedicated to it. http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2286.html

On top of this, Twinbird (the company I am working in) give their employees a further 2 days off (but they have to make one up on the two consecutive Saturdays)

So I get a total of six days off including the weekend to do a few things. But first I want to dinner with Justine and Lindsey for a quieter farewell party.
