Sakura artist in (Tokyo) Kichijoji’s Inokashira Park (井の頭恩賜公園)
As today’s blog entry posts, I should be in the air between Medford and Los Angeles. From there I catch a plane to Tokyo. And at Narita I will be transferring on to Fukuoka. This will be a very long day, but I’m excited to soon be back in Japan.

You would think that the river running alongside Shirakawago would be called the Shirakawa (白川). However, it isn’t. Instead it is called the Sho River, and if the place wasn’t amazing enough without a river running through it… well, let’s just say a more beautiful place couldn’t be created in fantasies.
Tokyo, Japan
I have shown this scene (the Mt. Fuji piece anyway) zoomed in a couple times before. Today’s pic is a much more general overview of the bulk of Shinjuku Ku with the main Shinjuku skyscraper buildings in the distant center, a bit of Nakano Ku in the distance to the right and a bit of Shibuya Ku in the distance to the left.
