Land of contradictions

The beauty of cherry blossoms mixed with the unsightliness of power lines somehow seem to morph into a new kind of unique beauty, but........

the effect seems to lose its power when the blossoms are gone. Hmmm.......

Another day.....

another drunk guy praying he makes it home.

Red shoes

make me HAPPY!!

First day of school.......

and doesn't everyone look pretty?

Looks like this cute family is on their way to the opening ceremony for the first day of school. Isn't mom's kimono gorgeous?

Jumping for joy. . . .

'cause spring is here!!

Spring has come and I feel like jumping! Well, I usually feel like jumping. Just thought it would be a good excuse.

Looking good Mr. Jameika.

I love the green of the weeping willow and the pink of the cherry blossoms - all combined with a nice shadow!! Great jump, if I do say so myself!

Cherry Blossoms in Ueno Park

Yay!! The sakura finally arrived, and they are beautiful.

But only for a short time..... They are gone before you know it.
