I've fallen behind a bit on posting my #creative366project photos – I can't believe this week is already almost over. I've been taking my photos, but just haven't had time to go through them since I had lots of others to go through.
So catching up! This photo was from March 10th, taken when I was at a university friend's house (actually, her parent's house) for a housewarming party of sorts. Actually it was more of a "renovation" party, as they had just finished repairing and fixing up their home.
They had a really lovely place, with beautiful washi-decorated walls and ceilings. The image below is of the side of their "genkan" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genkan which featured this intricately designed wall that also served as a window into another room (the white background slides to close the window for privacy if needed).
Peeking through the frame is my friend's grandmother. She's 90(!), but is still incredibly active and full of vitality. Amazingly, she was working at the family's ramen shop until she was in her late 80's, after which she turned it over to her family members.
I can only hope that I'm as "genki" and spry as she is when I reach her age.
