Someone actually jumped in front of his bicycle which made him lose his momentum and almost made him fall over.
This actually gave me some time to whip out my camera.
I realized that there are many electrical wires in between the truck and construction area, so everything needed to be lifted up and over the wires.
The man was leading the lady, making sure she didn't fall.
During the year, this tree is filled with leaves, but come Autumn/Winter, only the branches are left and look exactly like criss-crossing razor blades.
My afternoon walks these days are usually highlighted by warm yet beautiful sunsets.
These were on the wall of a neighborhood pre-school.
The tree on the top of the photo is actually a reflection.
This is the usu (mortar) that is used to pound the rice.
Don't know why they were pounding mochi after New Years, but thought it was nice that their group was having lots of fun.
What have you been seeing on your walks?

Hey Kat - I love these "slice of life" posts and photos!
I looooved this walk. Makes me wish I were there. That razor blade tree is so cool.
Thanks Kirk :)
Yeah Jalna, we could walk the neighborhood together :)
Take care you two.
Kat
You got to watch those bikes zipping around the local neighborhood.
Oooh, that tree is really kind of scary-looking! I think I might irrationally shy away from walking near it if I spotted it in my path.
Wow, great post so full of experience! Love the photography.
I've seen bicycles clip other bicycles because they don't want to stop or don't know the rules of the road J-A! scary stuff!
The tree does get really tall Anon, it would definitely be scary if there were more than one.
Thanks Jonathan, glad you enjoyed the photos too :)
Take care everyone.

Yesterday I saw a couple of hellebore flowers in bloom which looks so odd given that everything else around them was dead. That razor blade tree is cool (and I like how you now link to Flickr and even add some extra info!).
Hellebore flowers are something I've seen, though I don't remember what season :( thanks for the advice about photos Rowena :)
Take care.

I would LOVE to have Soba noodles delivered.They are not so easy to make if I remember correctly - several dippings in cold water.
The box sits
waiting
for me
on the shelf...
(a haiku :)
PB I think your haiku may be missing a part. If I remember correction a haiku is 5-7-5 :)
Take care.
Kat
Great pictures--so fun! ;-)
Thanks Deb in Hawaii :)
Take care.

Love that you caught the soba delivery guy -- quick thinking and steady hands! I haven't seen one of those since my last time in Okinawa.
Thanks Manju, it is rare to see deliveries on bicycles these days, more and more they are on mopeds.
Take care.
Kat
