Japan : Sakura trees are Japan soul

En français
Yesterday evening I went to the 野川 (Nogawa) river to see the Sakura trees enlighten. That was really magical. The blooming trees were pinkish and white on the dark night sky. I wouldn't have been surprised to see little fairies. My friend told me that the Sakura trees are Japan soul and he asked me what the France soul is, if that's the Eiffel Tower. I didn't really know what to answer. I never thought about it before. Maybe Japan is going to teach me new feelings. Looking at the trees probably did, that's difficult to explain.

America : Walk in Chicago and zoo

 En français
The next morning I went to walk in an other part of Chicago and kind of scared myself with a guy following me. Then I took the train to go to a more secure part of town to the Ernest Hemingway museum. Unfortunately is was close.
In the afternoon I walked to the zoo. Chicago has a free zoo in the middle of town which was pretty cool.
That was a long and warm day and I walked a lot.

America : China town in Chicago

En français
The next day I went to walk in China Town in the morning and I stayed there for lunch in a new Japanese restaurant which was just opening. Some people I know went there too but only saw the main street, not the mall that is a bit further away. I think that the mall was the most interesting part of it.
