Last
night The Boy and I spent a cosy night in eating pasta, drinking wine
and just generally enjoying each others company. It was a lovely lazy
evening that followed on from a pretty uneventful day (saving money is
boring but sometimes a weekend at home is just what the doctor ordered).
We seem to have watched many a film of late, mostly chosen by The
Boy; Unknown, Drive and many an episode from The Wire box set (a
Christmas present, what was I thinking?!), so I put my foot down and
declared that I wanted to watch Memoirs of a Geisha. This was not The
Boy's first choice that's for sure, but I love this film, the storyline,
the scenery, the outfits; pure cinematic bliss.
The film
got me thinking about when I visited Tokyo in 2009 and what an
absolutely amazing place it is. I'd love to go back someday and stay for
a while longer (we were only there for a week) as I love the culture
and would like more of a chance to explore.
Watching the film and
looking back through some of my old pictures inspired me to take some
pictures for my look of the day today next to some amazing trees I saw
in the cemetery yesterday when I went for my run. I'm not sure what
trees they are but to me they have a similar feel to the Japanese cherry
blossom and I really love the colour.
