I was a Canadian exchange student attending Seifu Gakuen back in 1985 -1986. I participated in the Doya-Doya festival along with my other classmates. You would think that on January 14 with the temperature hovering around 0 Celsius, that the participants would be cold, especially after they are dosed with splashes of water. I remember it was actually not that cold, because of the ( march ) slow jog through the streets. After the ceremony was over they revealed to me why we were doing the festival, where it all made sense. It was a great time and Seifu was enjoyable for me even though it took close to 6 months to start to understand more and more Japanese each day.
