Sakura 2018

[nemo88]

I touch down Tokyo 19th March - very lucky for me! Didn’t plan for sakura so this is really coincidence.

Many may see only green leaves this time if so

For me, last day of March to Tokyo.
2nd April to Kyoto. maybe can catch

Although does not matter for me, since the food alone i already arranged 15x restaurants just for this trip.
2x baseball match, 1x classical concert. Meeting few japanese friends. onsen ryokan. that's enough for me to enjoy the trip
There is always next time.

I used to like Harutaka but then the last trip i went i got bad experience so now don't have any favourite.

My upcoming trip not eating any sushi but then the next one after that will need to find 1 or 2 sushi place.

Interested in Hakkou
