(Ab)Normal

Going to the office today I observed a two things, one abnormal and one normal. The abnormal thing was long lines of cars waiting to get to the gas stations. Both along Meguro-dori just around the corner from where we live, and one gas station just a few blocks from my office in Shinagawa.



The normal thing that I observed is that people are getting ready for Sakura just as usual around this time of the year. Along Meguro-river there is usually a lot of light. This morning I saw that they are putting these lights up this year as well. It was nice to see, though I wonder how we will cope with the cyclic power outage. Maybe just put them up without lightening them? Anyway, it was a nice feeling to see something normal for once 🙂

Come to think of it, there was another thing that was normal… I was riding my bike to the office 😉

  1. The children spoke just the otherday about you two, sakura, the restaurant and the walk under the cherry blossom at the river with all the lights. And they wants us to put upp lights like that during sakura in Sweden as well.
