March was the last month for graduating Junior High kids in Kitakyushu City. I was at Hanao and, unfortunately, didn't really know the students too well because my time was spent the last few months at Tahara and Chiyo instead. Still, I warmed up to some second year students and did the best I could in teaching.

March was also my time to travel to Osaka and Tokyo, where I met up with friends I hadn't seen in years and with others I never met before in person.

It was also my time to visit Akihabara, also known as Electric Town. I remember being younger and imagined what it would be like just to stand there.

Some people have dreams of standing by the falls of Niagara, or kissing their significant other atop the Empire State Building. Mine, now, was to stroll through Akihabara for the first time. March was a very, very good month.

Tokyo is hectic. This month's abundance of images is just as well.
