Yesterday, a few of us tried to go and do ohanami (looking at cherry blossoms, drinking and eating and singing under the trees), but the weather was totally uncooperative. I did get a couple of interesting shots, but overall it was a wash (pun intended).

But, actually, the evening wasn’t a wash at all, because I got to try another food Nagoya is famous for, あんかけスパ (ankake supa, or spaghetti), a thick spaghetti with a nice spicy sauce that they’ll put almost anything on. This was a real treat, and I had some very pleasant company to go along with it.
