The Cherry Blossoms in Utsubo Park...

are in bloom!! I went there for lunch and a break yesterday. I had a delicious hand-made lunch box with fried chicken, some fried egg things, some hot birdock root, a few small baked potatos, and maybe some sesame spinach stuff, but I can't remember. Also, some nice hot green tea which was essential because it was a little chilly outside. I spent about an hour in the park and ate and talked slowly. It was a really relaxing time for me. THANK YOU!!!

There were many people in the park. From the looks of everyone's clothes, most people were business men or women, a a few groups of "new young green" workers who just began working at their respective companies on Wednesday April first. There were some groups of local people who live in the area, and also a few groups of housewives and their children. All in all, it was a really nice atmosphere and everyone looked happy.

After lunch I went to the bank and was surprised because I ran into Mr. F. at the ATM machine. He didn't notice me standing next to him because he was very focused on his money I think. And, he also looked very happy, but I don't think it was for the same reason as me. He was holding about 6 bank books, can you believe it, SIX!!! That's a lot of bank books!! So I think he was very happy because he was bust counting ALL of his money, which must be A LOT if he has 6 bank books!!!:)

Hope everyone has a good weekend, and if ya have the chance, check out the pink beautiful cherry blossoms at Utsubo park if ya can. They are really something!
