I think I'll stop reading the news for a while. If it isn't Abe it's Bush, I will have to hear or read about some bigoted remark from another politician in Japan. Or an apologist. Or Ishihara or Fujiwara.

Cherry blossoms are blooming in Tokyo now. Going to be windy tomorrow morning, but it shouldn't blow much of them off yet. If I can ride tomorrow, I can photograph some when I get back.
