butterfly season

10:45 AM

is officially here in miyako, and its quite simply- delightful.
it is golden week in japan, which means five days off, yatta!
yesterday was spent driving around, on the hunt for secret beaches. i found some, and also a beautiful path filled with butterflies.. amazing. then my first swim in the ocean this season. heaven..
four more days of holiday for me. detoxing, studying, running, cleaning, going to the beach, massage, a few dinners planned, a few coffee dates.. and best of all, on sunday, a kimono day for me! ritsuko-sensei, one of the top japanese dance teachers of japan (!), has invited me to her home to dress me formally in kimono, and to have lunch.. which is incredibly exciting, as well as quite an honnor. i have worn a yukata before, which is simply a light summer-style kimono, but not the real thing.

happy working, playing, and most importantly,
happy spring
