Sakura Matsuri

Today, there was a festival of sakura in my area.
Bands playing famous 80's songs, groups performing taiko (japanese drum, ...)

After 2 weeks, there are still some sakura, but the amazing thing today was to see a sakura rain as the wind was quite strong and the river's water got all light pink all over...


Nowadays, you can see families all around on Sundays. 10 years ago, usually only moms and kids were going out, but now, dads are together, usually taking pics of the kids.

Good to see that in Japan.




In Daikanyama, barbecues were taking place in the parks, with music and some strange characters all around.
