Prints, Sculptue and Food

What a first day of play! Five hours wandering around Uneno Park and the Tokyo Met followed by a leisurely stroll in Asaksa - just a billion people, so not too crowded.Another visit to the supermarket and we're full to bursting.

Looked at two shows at the Tokyo Met:
The 77th Japan Print Assoc showed a few (836 plus!) prints some of which were huge. Most pieces were just amazing, some mind blowing in detail and visual impact.

The 3rd Japan Sculptor's (?) exhibition. This is excellent and ranged over all materials and size. This is the second time I've seen this show and I really enjoyed the work again - no welded cutlery or high school manual arts projects here!

The cherry blossoms seem to have all but gone but the azaleas are just about to burst forth.
