Yes, last year we drove out to 十輪寺 in late May, and that place would be BRILLIANT for seeing Sakura. This year we will try and go to less travelled spots as well. Hopefully Kyoto doesn’t get locked down again.

I often heard “preggers” growing up in Western Canada, but I had no idea it had a connotation of 出来ちゃった。Naive? 😇

Keeping an eye on this thread. We will be back up in Kyoto for spring break. First time at our apartment there since September! 🥺 Really hoping to see some 🌸 Last year we only looked at the one lone tree in the park from our balcony 😭

Both my girls are slobs too. The dog-ears have dog-ears. Somehow most of the books are jammed into the front narrow pocket, and the big boxy bit is holding only a pencil case and light dusting of pencil shavings from all the banging around 🤷♂️

Kinda thinking I would like to go to Shimabara Peninsula: hit Shimabara, Minamishimabara, and Unzen.
Any recommendations? Or locals I should connect with?

‘Tis the end of the month out goes my update. So much stuff happened this month but I feel so unproductive. Wrote a lot, but made no book progress. However, with the weather changing and corona settling down, I am feeling really positive for March 💪

Also, the 12-60 Leica lens that I shot these on just arrived at my house tonight. Hadn’t even opened it yet! After getting the heads up from @ronanhand I tore open the box, slapped the new lens on and ran out the door! Worst prepared amateur photog ever! 🤣

Huge and yellowy here in Iki. Wish I had a tripod so I could get a clearer shot. Just grabbed my camera and ran out my front door and stood on a jetty. You can see the green and red signal lights at the port barrier. https://twitter.com/ronanhand/status/1365970224252559361

😁 It is ENDLESS in Kyoto. I basically have to go back to everywhere ALL THE TIME 😅 It is one of the reasons I love/miss living there. So much in one area… and then a quick jaunt to Osaka, Kobe, Nara, etc

Replying to @ninja_padrino
Yes! That’s the one. Also, if you are near Matsuo Taisha head about 5mins south to Tsukiyomi Jinja. Shrines to the Moon God are not common, and that is actually a satellite shrine of the Tsukiyomi Jinja near my house here on Ikijima! Pretty rare

A bit late now, but if you’re ever in the area again and are up for a hike, I highly recommend Daihikaku Senkoji. Go on a nice day. You stroll along the river, and then there is a vigorous set of stairs. View is amazing. About 45m there and back? (I was with kids… )

80% of the world speaks 2+ languages. But that doesn’t mean they are *literate* in those languages. Maybe one of the reasons CH is popular is you can participate in conversations which you wouldn’t otherwise in text, eg. a Twitter thread. 🤔 CH’s audio format favours the spoken.
