All finished with my work in Tokai, where I have been all week for T2K.

My flight home is Sunday night, which leaves the weekend free. Since it is now the first week in April -- always the best time to be in Japan -- I get to go see the sakura[*] in Tokyo! Hooray!

I've been in Japan many times for the sakura, but it is a treat that never grows old. Also, I've seen the sakura in Toyama, and in Takayama, and in Tokai... but never in Tokyo![**] The East Capital is sure to take this treat to another level! I've been looking at the sakura status online -- for instance this report from yesterday -- and it looks absolutely amazing!

I plan to start in Ueno Park and then wander to some of the other sakura locations in central Tokyo. The weather is good, so getting in a boat ride is a must, as is seeing them illuminated after dark.

So long as my phone camera works (not certain; it's been dodgy) there will be pictures to follow!

Sakura! Huzzah! Banzai!


[*] Cherry blossoms!

[**] Or, really, any city that doesn't begin with a 'T' in romanji.
