 The Golden Week holiday is upon us,
 here in Japan.
 
 For many, that  means 1 week off, to travel...
 
 For me,
 it means nice weather and slightly quieter streets...
 
 Today, I was able to go to my Etegami class,
 after being housebound for a week and a half with a kick-ass cold.
 
 I was glad to be able to go out
 and see my friends once again.
 
 On the way to class this morning,
 I found a most beautiful flower blooming wild
 in front of my house...
 
 A deep, rich purple.
 They are called tsuyukusa, here...
