FROM JAPAN

My japanese friend, Mr. Tanabé, wrote me again.

This is a castel on Osaka city (second photo).

In this time of the year, the japanese people celebrate cherry blossons by singing and drinking with friends and co-workers.

Thank you very much for the cultural celebrations on your father land you inform us.

As you can see in the first photo, in Portugal we celebrate the spring time by visiting the country side to have excessive eating and drinking . We don´t have so much cherry blossoms. But we have almond tree blossoms. This is an ex libris of the portuguese tourism industry.

Until next time, Mr. Tanabé.
