Kimono and sakura👘 🌸和服與櫻花 Explore Japan with me [2] 🇯🇵跟Viola遊日本💓

Dear friend,
Day two of our trip was probably my most treasured day. 1.We wore beautiful traditional kimonos 2.I didn't charged my camera so I was focused on the actual scenery in front of me.Funny how technology changed our lives that sometimes we use lens to see the world instead of our own eyes. April is the month of sakura bloom.It was incredibly hard to rent kimono.I sent at least 5 E-mails. Luckily, I found a place called Sakura Photo Studio. The ladies there was so nice and they even compliments us with their limited Cantonese which was funny.They said "ho leng,ho leng" meaning very pretty.

在日本的第二天是我最喜歡的，因為我們穿了美美的和服，也是因為我忘記了為相機充電，所以我真的用自己的眼睛去欣賞周圍的環境。四月是櫻花季，所以和服體驗店都很忙碌。我們幸運地找到了一家在淺草的店叫「櫻花照相工作室」，招待我們的女士們都很友善，一直用有限的廣東話讚我們漂亮（十分專業)！我們之後去了東京睛空塔，穿著他們提供的拖鞋走路過去，不是很明智的選擇。😄

After getting dressed, we went to Tokyo sky tree by foot which was not a good decision.Those shoes they provided were not meant for walking! It took us at least an hour to walk there simply for the famous grilled eel over rice. The guide book highly recommended it and the dish itself holds 200 years history. Anyway, we were sold by the book.To be honest, it was a disappointment.The meal was so expensive because of the location in Sky tree. Then, we walked back to the Kaminarimon to take pictures and look for souvenirs.I bought so postcards of kimono girls and some letter paper with envelopes. One of the biggest goal of this Japan trip was sakura.We were so grateful for some last cherry blossom waited for us and it was so beautiful. I still dream about standing under those tiny flowers wearing that cream yellow kimono.Feeling very blessed and contented that we had a chance to experience that.

我們去晴空塔的主要目的是燒鰻魚午餐，是旅遊書極力推薦的，不過十分失望。價格很貴的一餐，雖然服務很好但食物真的不值。我們吃完飯後就回到浅草雷門拍照留念和買一點小禮物。其實最重點的行程是看櫻花盛開，我們去的時候已經是花期的尾聲，所以有剩餘的櫻花綻放已經十分感恩。到現在我仍然會想象自己穿著那淡黃色的和服在櫻花樹下放空。🎎
