Lovely Saturday. Bought some handmade chili crunch and chocolate at the Nikkei Centre market, took a bunch of photos with family at our local wisteria trellis, and watched 2 eps of Andor.
One of my all time fav photos came up in my Memories today: the eaves of Bukko-ji, our neighbourhood temple in Kyoto, against a clear blue sky. Shot on this day 2 years ago.
Opera time! #vancouveropera

Just a note and some links from April for you:
