My May. Day 1, part 2

16.37, Kansai Airport
Eevry airport strives to greet its visitors with something unique. As for Kansai, it has always looked industrial to me, unlike Narita and of course Haneda, with their soft design.
However, Kansai went out of its length and reminded me it's the wisteria season. I'm almost sad I can only see the decorations and not the real flower itself...

My curious April. Day 9

19.50, bar Robroy

Them people who said wisteria is already blooming in Kameido tenjin - burn in hell! We went through all the trouble of getting there from Ginza only to see a single tree blooming and the rest of the shrine covered in thick green...

And still, today's 'Baddy Baddy' we have seen in Takarazuka is playing in my head. I would love to dance if I weren't so tired from walking to and from Kameido

My Japanese tour 2016. Day 9, part 1

12.30, Korakuen station

It was my dream to go to a place I don't know at all. So we took the first book that came before our eyes in the room - it was the 'Shounen Jump' that U-chan bought the other day, searched for a random letter and random number, and what we got in the result was MA21, subway Marunouchi line 21st station, Korakuen.

A wonderful thing - some sakura still blooming in the end of April.

13.50, Korakuen garden

The ticket is only 300 yen, but what pleasure it is to behold such beauty. Even though we'll see wisteria tomorrow, it's great to have a glimpse of it here. Peonies are no less beautiful. And who thought such things as 'full moon bridge' would fascinate me. Some things only impress you when you actually see them. I guess there are no better landscape and interior designers than Japanese, if you ask me who is the best master of creating spaces where every new step brings new angles of viewing ordinary things.
