It’s cherry blossom time again in Japan and we’ve had a nice run of good weather where we could see the cherry blossoms. We took Akeel and Atool out on the bikes with Evan’s new bike and we saw some great sakura. The trees on Honmoku-dori seem to have blossomed early while the other ones around are still coming out.
This weekend would have been a popular weekend for Ohanami but we were busy on the Saturday and the Sunday wasn’t very flash weather.
Yesterday during our lunch outside we were visited by a local racoon. Tanuki is the Japanese name for racoon and we fed it some of the apple scaps that we were going to throw away. Nicole was nervous about feeding it, fearing that it would come back and make a mess of things. That and something about “what if he gets mad?”. 🙂
