Thank you for featuring my post! Appreciate it.
Great write up! Wonderful!
Thank you for including me amongst the great authors! I hope we get to meet some day. Perhaps we can show each other parts of Tokyo we like.
Well, that some day may be as soon as next week. LOL. Likely we’ll be in Japan again, but haven’t decided on which part yet.
Great timing! The weather should be great. We are just coming out of a cold spell and warming up again. Though, most of the sakura have shed their blooms. Enjoy!
