sakura in february!
by mikka
Iain has a friend visiting, so last weekend we went down to Shimoda. With only four weeks left in Numazu (!), it was quite likely our last visit for the time being, which made it both awesome and kind of sad.
There is much to love about Shimoda, like its' gorgeous beaches (which I think are even prettier in the winter off-season)...
... kaiten sushi...
...also, friendly, giant sea-turtles.
... and stray cats getting their hanami (flower-viewing) on.
Most of the hanami action was in nearby Kawazu, where the canal is already lined with an explosion of sakura.
Not pictured: a hoard of fellow camera-toting hanami enthusiasts.
