Satsuki Matsuri

After a tough week, turned out to this small matsuri (祭り = Festival) in support of some friend’s kids, who were performing in the parade and live stage.  Like all festivals in Japan, these community building events are a buzzing display of local food, culture and entertainment. 

Grabbing Air

After almost five years in Japan, I am still being informed of small race tracks all across this little country (when compared to Australia).  Being in the Sera region, and for those of you who know me – not a drinker, had a quick trip out to Green Park Korakuen (グリーンパークKORAKUEN).

CANON 30D

Well, I finally bit the bullet and purchased.  After contemplating the purchase of  a D-SLR for almost a year for work purposes, late april I aquired the Canon 30D.
