The Post Golden Week


Hi there!

Did I mention I went on a family vacation? I think I may have been a little bit too hasty to get out of Tokyo to remember to post about it.

Can you even believe how quickly April was over? I remember at the start of April my every other thought was "I can't WAIT for Golden Week!" and then work just swept away my sense of time and before I knew it, May was right there before my eyes. Amazing how time keeps on playing tricks on me like that.

So yes, I am back from my family vacation. And I feel great.

My baby sister is still in boarding school so she couldn't come with us this time but the rest of us all met up in Okinawa, which is where I am originally from.

Well, kind of. My mother's side of the family is Okinawan, my parents met and got married there, and both my sister and I were born there. And while we did move away when I was four years old, I still consider myself "from" Okinawa, as that is where my roots lie. So going back to Okinawa is always a treat because a part of me feels like I'm going home but another part of me feels like an explorer! (And we all love being an explorer, am I right?)

I haven't exactly had the post vacation blues but I've been having the post vacation laziness. But I'm going through my pictures so hope to have them up soon!

Wishing you all a happy weekend! x
