Pao and Sakura. The petals have started to fall. #Tokyo #dogs

I told Pao it’s raining cats outside. #Dogs

Blue sky, cherry blossoms, and the moon. #Tokyo

In appearance, at least, he’s cute I guess. #Dogs

Right by the sports center this morning.

Who remembers looking up kanji in the Nelson dictionary? I remember how surprised I was that it was possible! #japan

During this afternoon’s walk. #Tokyo #dogs

On my morning walk. #Tokyo

Good night. #Dogs

Is that a dog in your pants, or are you just happy to see me? #Dogs

This morning in front of the sports center I met this mastiff named Tenyu. He is two years old, and very shy. And he weighs 114 kg! By comparison, this morning I weighed 69 kg. And Pao weighs 34 kg.

Oh, you’re all done with your online English lesson now? I guess I can calm down and stop barking for a while. #Dogs

Oh, you’re done with your meeting? I can stop being hysterical and relax now. Sigh. #Dogs

Cherry blossoms forecast to bloom earlier than usual across much of Japan | NHK WORLD-JAPAN News Private-sector weather firms in Japan have released their latest forecasts for when the buds on cherry trees in the country will start to open this spring. They say the Somei Yoshino variety will come...

That’s like about a month earlier than when I first came to #Japan.

Pao making sure the garbage collectors are doing their job properly. #Dogs

Pao’s been hanging out behind my office chair all morning. #Dogs

By the way, I think I’ll stick to dogs and scenery photos here. The character limitations are too strict to post anything political or which requires commentary.

In my neighborhood, near the river, there’s this one house where every year the Sakura blooms early.

Snow this morning. #Tokyo

Pao and his sister run into each other again. #Dogs

Pao looks unsure about whether he wants to go for a walk or not. #Dogs

I’m going shopping. Are you going to be quiet while I’m gone? #Dogs
