Sakura I like seeing the cherry blossoms under the night sky. It looks so fantastic in the dark. The pale pink petals on the dark branches are attractive to us. This photo was taken around 23 pm and many visitor were still enjoying seeing beautiful sakura along the street there.

SUMO Sumo is the national sport of Japan. My friends suggested me to go to see sumo at kokugikan. I sometimes watch it on TV but it was first time to enjoy it there. It was so great and impressive! There were unexpectedly children who supported their favorite sumo wrestler there. Sumo is performed six times a year. I will go to see next perfomance there again!

South Beach in Miami It has been beautiful days in Miami during my stay on business although I didn't have time to enjoy the beach. I miss the warm beach because It is still chilly in Tokyo.

His class learns about different cultures through Flat Stanley. So I took him the famous spots in Tokyo as much as possible and took pictures with him there, Tokyo Station to see Bullet Trains, Imperial Plaze, Tokyo Tower, Meiji Shrine and Sushi Restaurant! I have already sent him with the pictures off. I hope they will take an interested in Japan through Flat Stanley!

Ｔhe　Ｇａｔｅｓ Central Park in NY was full in orange while staying. It was Christo's art, The Gates. I remembered one of his arts that displayed huge umbrellas the same time in the United States and Japan when I was a student. I was deeply impressed that I was present at his art again in New York. While I was seeing them in cold air, the warm orange color made me hungry and wanted to eat something hot. Then, I went to eat Japanese favorite noodle, Ramen. What's Ramen? Then, next time!

Blue Mountain Coffee I met a gentleman in an airplane on my way back to Japan. He came from Jamaica. We told about our countries and I taught him how to use chopsticks. He got it soon! When we arrived at Narita airport, he gave me a bag of Blue Mountain Coffee. I shared it with my family. We loved it very much. Thank you! Nuff thanks!!

Millennium Park in Chicago Millennium Park has opened near Art Institute of Chicago. This new park consists of a field concert hall, an object of a huge bean, a long and winding bridge and so on. This is one of their objects. The videos are put behind a heap of glass. Some faces appear every several minutes on it. Suddenly, she took out water from her mouth! What an unique idea!

LaLee's Turkey My best friend's mother-in law, LaLee cooks a turkey for me whenever I visit her. We don't have Thanksgiving Day and hardly eat it in Japan. When I saw it at her kitchen for the first time in my life, I was very surprised how big it was! I am sure LaLee's turkey is the most delicious in the world. I LOVE it!

Motoyasu river in Hiroshima The atomic bomb was dropped near that dome. My grandmother looked at the cloud shaped like a big mushroom from the mountain then. A lot of people who burned themselves by it jumped into this river one after another. August 6, 1945 has stopped even now here.
