There are hundreds of interesting characters in Yoyogi Park on any given sunny afternoon. Last Sunday, among the musicians, dancers and artists, this man blowing bubbles caught my eye. To the delight of passersby, he was sending enormous bubbles up towards the clouds. When I asked to take his photo, he first insisted that I have a go at making bubbles. Watching my bubble float away across the park may have been the highlight of my day.

That is great you approached a local and made a connection. I am sure at the end of the day he felt as happy as you!
