Asakusa Things

Full Emma Breakfast

We have heard of Full English Breakfast, even full Scottish Breakfast, but here it comes - Full Emma Breakfast. Toasted bagel with smoked salmon, feta cheese, avocado (and some other veggies), coffee, grapefruit juice, an egg and strawberries. 

桜が咲いている

Still no Sight of Sakura

Tokyo tower may be 3m taller, but the Eiffel Tower sure is prettier  from underneath. 

We did not really understand what Azabu Regional City wanted to tell us.  We kept an eye on the dogs and the pond though - all good we had it under control.  

Lovely Ladies that joined the afternoon walk. 

I Love Nishigoi!

Up Atago green hills, there is a temple that keep their pond water nice and crisp, and they have very pretty koi in nice bright colours. And, a not so colourful frog, but it was still cute. 

Hanami While Walking Home

Started from Shinagawa and walked along meguroriver all the way to Nakameguro. I did not walk all the way since, towards the end - crazy much people. And, sakura season haven't even started I hear. 

Osaki, it is really pretty along the river here now. Several restaurants with outdoor areas...

This used to be my house, almost 10 years ago.

In Gotanda, you're recommended to go off your bike before going down the stairs. Thank you. 

Meguro

More is better!

Down hill in sakuragaoka

And down by Shibuya Eki

 And I do apologise for image quality, only brought iPhone, and then this is what you get.

It is all happening!

Or not completely, but early sakura already started and the trees down at Megurugawa is just about to burst into bloom. Too bad for all people suffering from 花粉症, but happy times for spring.

St Paddy Parade at Omotesando

Lu convinced me that we should go out for a few hours and celebrate together with the Irish. Lovely spring weather today too, I was not difficult to convince. No Guinness for us, but coffee and ladybug cake afterwards.
