General Union Gaba Branch Hanami

Following on from the Christmas party held in December last year, the branch decided to hold a Hanami (flower viewing) party in Tokyo's Yoyogi Park. It was the first event of this type that the branch had held, and despite some worrying weather in the days beforehand, the day itself was warm and sunny.

Some members from various Gaba learning studios got together to eat, drink, and play frisbee under the trees. Despite the fact that unseasonably warm weather had made the cherry blossoms bloom much earlier than usual, there were still some remaining on the day. The sight of the blossoms falling was a nice "in Japan" moment, and the day was a great chance to sit and talk and enjoy each other's company. We are looking forward to holding more social events in the future.
