Despite having to work this Sunday morning, I managed to wrap things up and get out of the office in the early afternoon (yay!). I met up with M (today's his last day in Tokyo before his trip ends and he flies back home tomorrow morning) for an afternoon walk around the Nippori area.
Again, it never ceases to surprise me how much more others (meaning people who aren't living in Japan) seem to know about areas in Japan that I haven't been to. We walked around the nearby Yanaka Cemetary, a place I'd never visited before, as well as the many (and I mean many) temples in the area. It was surprisingly peaceful and we came across one single tree that was in full bloom.
Though I took several shots throughout the day, my favorite were of that tree (which I believe to be early sakura / cherry!). After a long chilly winter, it was very cheering to come across this early hint of spring. 🙂
Good night from Tokyo!
