Golden Week is upon us and we’re entering a time of rest and relaxation here in the busy land of Japan. Golden Week is a grouping of national holidays that amount to nearly a week off. Today (Thursday) is the first of 4 holidays. The others being next week’s Monday-Wednesday.
We spent a lazy day relaxing before Layla got it into her head she wanted a (surprise, surprise) Matcha Frappuccino from Starbucks. Being the pushover parents that we are, we headed out for the cool drinks.
On the way home, we stopped off at an amusement park of sorts for kids. Layla had seen it in our travels before and every time we neared it, she’d remind us of our promise to one day take her. Today was that day. She’d seen kids driving cars and wanted to give it a try so we let her. It took her a while to get warmed up, but once she started playing she didn’t want to leave.
