さくら! Cherry Blossoms! 

Person recently took me and Elsie to Japan. While we were there it was cherry blossom viewing season so we got to see lots of pretty flowers. All over Tokyo it was beautiful with pink and white flowers. We went on buses and trains to get to lots of different parks where we could look at the flowers. I though the bus was exciting. I liked looking out the window and seeing all the new and interesting things. Elsie was scared on the bus and hid in person's purse. She likes to hide.

Flower everywhere!

In Japan everyone likes to sit outside in the parks and look at the flowers. They sit on blue tarps and have picnics. We think this is a wonderful idea. We are always telling person that we want to go to the park and have a picnic. We wanted to get our own blue tarp to sit on.

This is where I'll have my picnic!

Person hadn't thought to bring anything for us to sit on so I improvised and sat in this tree while I ate my afternoon chocolate. At least person remembered the chocolate! I did remind her several times in the morning because she is often forgetful. I watched all the people walking by and wondered what they were doing. Maybe some of them were on their way to Tokyo Disneyland. I hoped someone would offer to take me but no one did.

We're having a fun day!

We visited lots of places and person started to get tired. I think that is why she kept saying no when we wanted to do things. That is the only reason that makes sense. Who wouldn't want to go the the "Hello Kitty" Museum!

Can you see Tokyo Tower in the background?

At one of the place we went to, you can see the Tokyo Tower. This is one of the tallest buildings in Tokyo according to person. It looked very big to us. I wanted to go in but Elsie was scared so we stayed in the park. 

I look nice with my red bow and the flowers!

All the gardens were very beautiful but I started to get bored and we had run out of chocolate! I think this may have been Elsie fault so we started arguing. Person thought we needed a nap but that just made us angrier. Naps aren't any fun. I think it was person who needed the nap! 

What a beautiful garden!

Person told us we had just one more place to visit and then we could go have dinner. I'm glad we went because we saw a wedding. There were so many pretty Kimono! Person needs to make one for me. I helped her pick out some fabric a few days later so hopefully I will have one soon. They didn't make any my size so Ill have to wait for person to make me one. Maybe I will learn to sew if she is too slow. 

There were Koi fish in this pond!

It was a very fun day except for running out of chocolate! We do need to learn Japanese though. We only know a few words so we couldn't talk to anyone and ask them to take us to Tokyo Disneyland. Maybe person will teach us Japanese or let us take a class for next time we visit! I'm sure other people will be more understanding than person about places we want to visit!
