This is what *EVERYONE* in Tokyo (or so it seems) has been doing today and yesterday – enjoying “hanami” (viewing the cherry blossoms). This is Kinuta Park in Setagaya-ku (around 4 or 5 stations west of Shibuya on the Den-en Toshi Line) mid-Saturday afternoon. This weekend is the sakura peak in Tokyo, so there’s no time like the present!
Instructions: Invite your friends, find a free spot (as close to a cherry tree as possible), lay down your blue plastic sheet, take off your shoes, eat your lunch, let the kids run around, and drink beer/sake, while all the time enjoying the sakura before they’re gone.
