Blog - Sweet Sakura Revue 2010

Photo Tokyo Sweet Sakura Revue 2010

This year's sakura season felt short, as we didn't have much good weather on weekends. Weather has been very strange this year, as we got more snow than usual, and even this week we got temperatures below 10°C, that's colder than Montreal.

Anyway, today we were lucky to get some 19°C that felt very good! So we headed to Asagaya to enjoy a little picnic under the cherry blossoms. We usually go to Asagaya jūtaku, but this time we found ourselves by the canal, where many other people were doing the same. This is still a much more quiet place than more popular parks.

Passing through Asagaya jūtaku, a residential area that had been set to be brought down to make room for taller buildings, we were happily surprised to see that it seemed still intact.

My friends at GwaGwa made this gigantic cake! It was displayed at the entrance of Tokyo Midtown until last week.
