Bososhima Park and more "street live"

today i took Noriko`s Father for a walk to a nearby park. there were a few cherry blossoms in bloom. i think it was too cold for him so we continued on to Carrefour to wait for Noriko. he and i waited for her to do some grocery shopping. he was tired. we drove to the top of a nearby hill and had sushi-bento in the car. we could see downtown Osaka.



and then around 321pm (exactly 321pm) i took the bus to Senri-chuo for the thursday afternoon/night "street live". it was very cold sitting outside for three hours but all the musicians were wonderful. i talked with one of the women named Yumi-san (actually two are named Yumi-san and one is Emi-san) whom i met last week. she and her friends are big fans of Ozaka Range (Sakamoto Keisuke and Ryo). Yumi-san comes from Yao to see/hear the music. Yao is on the other side (the south side) of Osaka.
