We had lunch with Nick then carried on to Midtown park for a playdate with Tim. Unfortunately the weather, which had been looking promising, turned to showers, so we sheltered in the long hut by the pool and forayed out whenever it stopped. As always, Emily enjoyed playing Poohsticks from the bridge over the rocky landscaped stream.
A group of amateur Japanese photographers were taking snaps and as soon as they spied our children they were clicking away like hungry paparazzi without so much as a 'by your leave'. Once Bettina and I wandered over they did ask if it was OK then but it was a bit of a cheek.
On the way back home afterwards I saw my first cherry tree of the year in Azabu - must be an early-flowering variety as most only have closed buds still. I also saw a woman of about 70 in a fur coat and heels, wearing a black bobble hat decorated with a sequinned skull and crossbones!
