Took a walk along Meguro river where the cherry blossoms are just about to open up….It will be a white alley way to walk in…just give it a couple of days… Found a cafe and treated ourselves to some ice cream to celebrate that spring has come…at last…
Max
Sightseeing in Yoyogi Park, visiting the great Meiji Shrine. Quite a lot of walking but it was worth it! Max enjoyed the bridges, gates and free spaces for running and Sam tried his walking legs…and just like his big brother…loved the the little rocks and pebbles…
Sam has finally decided it is time to get up and get going…..
But there is still time for a favourite book…at the moment “Goodnight moon”..
We visited the Zojoji temple and were amazed at the numbers of little Jizo statues that were both so colourful and sad at the same time. The Jizo statues are the Buddist “angels” and are the protector of the souls of stillborn babies. They all had little red bonnets and many of them held colourful windmills.
and so off to the parks again in great sunshine…this time in the company of grandma and grandpa…
Shinagawa Fire department invited Kspace children to a fire drill….
A special treat after the drill, got to take a ride in the fire truck…
Max school put on a great show the other day and ended their theme of the month (Space and Earth) with a performance that included “ Fly me to the moon” …
At the same time Max had to say Bye to his wonderful teacher Zoe that is going home to Australia… we will miss her very much!
