OK, have to wind up on the Hanami pix, because there's too much cool stuff going on in my life right now and I'd like to catch up to the present eventually!
Buddhists may have some fucked-up ideas, but they always look cool, even when posing next to shell-suited grannies.
Lawrence I haven't seen for ages - bit of a recluse, but Kate is a good friend of mine. Both work in local highschools and both speak better Japanese than me. Damn them.
Photography got a bit trickier after all that shouchu and nihonshu (potato and rice wine, respectively) but the BBQs continued late into the night. Some of my Japanese friends got jobs working the commercial BBQs that sprung up, and they were nice enough to harvest lots of left-over alcohol and food for us, as well as allow the use of a spare gas range - so this was possibly the first BBQ I joined that wasn't hosted by random people - bonus!
