Cherry blossom season is Japan is truly beautiful. It lasts a short time and the locals certainly make the most of it. The term Haname has basically come to mean drink all you can under the shade of a cherry blossom tree. So, when in Rome…
The Kiwi contingent celebrated Hanami at Yoyogi Park in central Tokyo. We had a great afternoon with a big group of people from all over the world, talking, laughing and of course drinking. We were even entertained by a roving group of Japanese belly dancers. A great afternoon was had by all, especially Storm who has now sworn off sake.
Shortly after Hanami season Sarah returned to New Zealand to pursue her own adventure. So now it’s just me!
