Now and Zen

An almost-long weekend is coming up and, despite the fickle weather, a couple of days off is always a good thing. Time to think. Time to de-stress. Time to time-out.

With that, time to share some images of calm and tranquility from the Meiji Shrine and the Imperial East Gardens.






















Have a good weekend, minna-san.

  2. @ Ternie : Molto bene. I shall be Odile to your Odette, as you glide guilelessly along Lake Placid.

    Which is actually not a lake, but the palace moat.

  6. @ engel : Somehow, I knew you were gonna say bonsai.

    @ Mike & hondafanboi : Tokyo is very future-forward yet at the same time still steeped in tradition. It's a fascinating, schizophrenic mix of the old and the new - like encountering a trio of kimono-clad women amidst a gaggle of Harajuku girls.

    And yet, somehow both complement each other.
