It is probably a bit odd to be suggesting that much of this morning was taken up with updating this blog. It's important. And I do like doing it but I don't like getting too far behind. So, we are back to square one.
As a reward for work undertaken, I went for a stroll this afternoon. It stopped raining and the weather is just sufficiently pleasant to be out and about.
With camera in hand (of course), I went across to my local public park. It has plenty to offer in terms of things to see and do.
Naturally, at this time of year, we are all anticipating the cherry blossoms, 'sakura'. There are some nearby...but first, scenes from a park.

Coming back to Tokyo has been a bit of a 'walk in the park' in fact. It feels like I've never really left, still. Next week once the work starts, might be a bit different though...
And here, on the way home, a little hint of things to come:

Yes, a few trees are beginning to blossom. The full deal is eagerly anticipated next week. Be aware, the next week of posts might just be all about the blossoms...

*This post is dedicated to my dear friend Jinko Hashimoto, who passed away a year ago today and in whose house I am now staying. We shared many good times photographing our worlds. We all miss her terribly.
May she rest in peace.
