A Happy New Year!!

  By ,

2023 is here now!!

I haven’t been back to Japan for long time.

Last time I was there shortly after my dear dad was passed away in 2018….

It was very sad time….

But this year,

I look forward to seeing cherry blossom in April and going to see my cousin in Ishigaki-island where tropical climate.

What I miss most about Japan is Onsen – Hot Spring Bath and Cherry Blossom.

I guess I need to use bath bomb which my son gave me for the Christmas.

That keeps me warm and making me to dream of Japanese cherry blossoms.

We love cherry blossom so much!  I can’t wait to see the pink season again!
I don’t know it is the DNA, as a Japanese we get really crazy for cherry blossoms.
When it is the season, we have to have a picnic outside to admire the cherry no matter cold or night…

When people are out about, always shops are out about, too.

We buy street food, and some interesting thing you don’t normally see from the high street, like candy frost shop,

gold fish catching ( with very thin rice paper spoon), candy apple/toffee apple.

one of the very traditional thing is candy craft ( Ame-zaiku ). It was rarely see them when I was little…

But look!! They are the beyond candy….

So beautiful so realistic and lively, I can’t imagine eating as candy….. ( Such art works rather than sweets by Ameshin in Asakusa,Tokyo (http://www.ame-shin.com/)
