A long time ago, there was something called the #7BookCoverChallenge. It was a challenge to contribute to the spread of reading culture. "The way to participate is to take a photo of the cover of one of your favorite books every day for seven days and post it. Upload only the cover image without any description of the book, and take a photo of the cover every day.

All of our relatives gathered in the garden of Kishibe Kindergarten in Shibuya, and we brought out and lined up all the photos of our deceased loved ones. Our old dog Anya, who is now 13 years old and can barely move, was relaxing in the sunshine. There are only a few more springs to spend with you, and I can see the mountain cherry blossoms blooming quietly.
Further display Cherry-blossom viewingWhen I walk through the city after the rain, the cherry blossoms are already in leaf.
