funabori days

We had lovely weather this weekend and we spent Sunday walking around Funabori in Edogawa-ku.

Hard to see on the above photo but they do boat trips down the canal during sakura season.

If you turn off the canal you get to a bit called 健康の道 (health road?). There are lots of these dotted about and they are ever so pretty, you can hear the birds singing and encounter lots of nature. It feels like you’ve left the city when you’re walking along them.

hearts and strawberries

happy valentine’s day (for yesterday)!

How did you spend your day?  I made us pizza and chocolate covered strawberries – I tried my best with them! Then we just relaxed and watched TV.  I like to just keep it simple.  When I was younger I did like to go out and I don’t regret that.  A lot of people criticise others for spending money on Valentine’s Day but you celebrate how you want to.  Being the tighty that I am, I like to celebrate it, but in a frugal way.  I know the strawberries don’t look as good as they ...
