Each year the Kyoto City Fire Department have a small parade and demonstration of their fire fighting skills. They show the assembled crowd near Okazaki Park their fire fighting equipment and their skills to use it. The demonstration ends with the ladders on their trucks being extended full height and the water cannons being fired. I caught a few shots of the parade, but with it being a cloudy day, there was unfortunately no bright rainbow to be seen when the water cannons fired. Maybe next year.
