Golden Week 2006

We had a lovely stretch of holidays recently. The public holidays for Golden Week were from the 3rd to the 5th of May. This was immediately followed by the weekend. We managed to visit a quaint town called Yanagawa on the first day and played tennis on what was apparently the first tennis court in Japan. The town is also famous for its canals and unagi (grilled eel). We gave the boat rides a miss because of our frisky Ben-ben but managed to sample some of the savoury and tender unagi.

The next few days brought rain, so aside from a trip to watch Jo at soccer school, we spent the holidays lounging at home.

Pictures will come soon.
