Japan

Letters from America

Sunday 27 May 2018

It was another glorious Autumn weekend and I spent this one in the Blue Mountains with an old friend, who lives there with her family.  She is originally from Japan and has christened her neighbourhood Aoyama after an elegant part of Tokyo which has beautiful street trees.  I was probably one week late for the colour this year but even so there were some lovely trees still in the streets round about, including this radiant maple:

And so I have to confide I bought tickets earlier this year to visit Japan at the end of November – which will be their late Autumn.   Anticipation will be intensifying as the year progresses 🙂
