As promised here are some hanami pictures. The sakura this year were typically breath taking! Here Mizuho and I are wearing traditional Japanese kimono at Nakatsu-jo. _______
After my yudansha-geiko at the Renshinkan do
jo we went to the castle, for photos with the sakura, and the ‘usual customs’. Needless to say, we had a wonderful time.
Best wishes from Nakatsu, Oita Prefecture, 
Japan.
