April 1st every year is the start of a new financial year for most Japanese companies. Newly hired employees normally start work on this day, and you can see them out and about in their new suits trying to blend in with everyone. With the Sakura out and the weather becoming warmer, April 1st always has a great feel of fresh and new.
Here are some “Sakura Bento” shots from the park near my house.

Argh…… makes want to go over to Jp just for that!!!
Great implementation those turning kanji cards. I like the idea a lot.
RT @shibuya246: Sakura Bento Lunch for Apr 1 http://jpn.fm/92UUnu What a great looking place to have lunch. Is this the same park you took pics of before of that salaryman taking a nap in from a previous entry? We really don’t do anything over here. We don’t celebrate those types of things. But soon everything over there will be fully awash with Sakuras in Full Bloom. Were these pictures taken from your apt. window?
A new friend? I don’t reconize this character. What’s the contents of the Bento Lunch?
tonkatsu from wako (pork cutlet)
This looks like the same spot where the salaryman was taking a nap from a previous blog entry.

Kanji cards are a great idea, hope you keep doing that!
