Downtown Okayama – a canal a nice walking pathway with public art and benches / I also love the covered walkable shopping arcades… It really make a lot of sense and rainy cities say… I don’t know, Vancouver. They’re handy here more for shade then showers
Grateful for the usual days (amongst the tumult) ~ Spontaneous picnic along the canal in pleasantly provincial Okayama.
The happiest I’ve been to see a DHL truck (those who know, know), expensive price for menial tasks
A few BIG projects recently and no doubt wiped me out despite the dopamine of “finishing” something. So, after a (thought at the time but… really not) final step, we purchased a picnic for a spontaneous hanami along the canal in downtown Okayama.
Just woke up from a nap and has that Napoleon Dynamite thing going on
Of course these days, a day out in public isn’t common but we found an empty bench and enjoyed the blossoms falling and each other. Noting the “usually” in Japan, hanmi (flower watching) is a big deal with elaborate picnics, jousting for prime locations and often drunken revelry – honestly, this is more my speed :).
weary from a big project with loads of paperwork and complications (and revealed of some distasteful truths and misgiving) but ahoy i’m here and in love
Note: Indeed, we buy each other hats… Possibly “too frequently”
