1 May 2024 Tokyo: Its Your Birthday and May Day and Rule of Law Day

 


It is Leslie's birthday today and I got her one giant doughnut for her birthday!  At least I got a picture of a giant birthday and I put it up on Facebook.  We were very leisurely this rainy day.  Nice gyokuro tea to sip, avocado toast to eat and no schedule to adhere to.  We waited for a break in the rain but it just rained all day long.  We headed out to get fresh Birthday goodies anyway.  Fresh Sashimi, cream filled doughnuts instead of cake and a delicate potted plant were all brought back to our apartment for the celebration.  The champagne was already chilling in the fridge, ready for us once we returned.    Happy Birthday to the sweetest gal in all the land.


We gave the rain time to stop before we went out for Birthday Goodies.  But  it was non-cooperative


I was voting for the chocolate pyramid cake but it was not chosen


Maybe a birthday bucket hat?


Or a birthday scarf?


Or a hundred dollar umbrella?


How about birthday sashimi?


A pretty spot pattern on this fish


We have settled on the sushi, now the cake


Or doughnuts instead of cake!


A potted lily of the valley plant


So pretty


Time to celebrate
