This weekend, I went to a hanami (a Japanese picnic under the cherry blossoms) in Shinjuku park, Tokyo. It was even more beautiful than last year. This weekend was probably the last great weekend for hanami this year. The blossoms were huge. They were the size of my fist and almost looked more like roses.
Here is my friend Atsushi drinking some wine in the park. There are signs telling you not to, but everyone does it anyway. Spring is the season to eat and drink under the cherry blossoms.
After the hanami, I met
REANNON at a restaurant near Tokyo station. It was great to meet her! She has one of the best blogs about Japan, and now she's moving away from Japan. I'll really miss the way she writes about things I'm familiar with. We have really different opinions about this country, so I always find it interesting to read her perspective on Japanese things.

Hi there I happened to chance upon your interesting blog about Japan, and I'm envious! Hope you can update frequently, because it's nice to read about Japan from the perspective of a foreigner.

Thanks for the shout out...again! I hope to meet up with you sometime again soon. Maybe I'll move to Hong Kong and I'll see you on your next visit there (?) When are you going back?
