Last Saturday on April 28th, I took a shot of a R142A (6) train from E. 149th Street to Hunts Point Avenue recording my video. Then I took the shuttle bus to the nearby Whitlock Avenue to find a barber shop and gotten a haircut. Then onward to Brooklyn by taking the (2) train to Times Square and transfer to the (Q) train to Prospect Park. However, I didn’t know about the other entrance which is Eastern Parkway (2) and (3) stop. So I went in and pay the $15.

I’ve been exploring around the botanic gardens with different types of Japanese plants and lilies which you can find on my Facebook fan page’s photo albums. Then onward to the Cherry Esplanade Stage and gotten myself some “dango?” which is a Japanese food on a stick but tastes pretty sweet.

Afterwards, I went to the Sakura J-Lounge where the anime and manga takes place. Even for cosplayers. Every minute, took photo shoots of each cosplayer for collection such as Sakura Haruno, Link, Youmu, and even the Parasol Yukata, Kimono, and Lolita girls.

During the 3PM time after going to the Doll museum, I went to the Cherry Esplanade Stage to see the band. I wanted to get in contact with the band but didn’t reach me, then rushed to see the manga artist Misako Rocks with anime English dub voice actor Veronica Taylor. It’s a fun workshop. By the time after I met Veronica, I rushed over to Yuki Ishiwata with her cuties band and it was already over. I was lucky enough to buy the other CD from Yuki Ishiwata's merchants making it a full complete collection.

As the time goes, I accidentally took the Queen’s side of the (C) train from Franklin Avenue after the shuttle from the Botanic Garden instead of the Manhattan bound and the power failure making all trains not move to Utica Avenue on the Manhattan bound side. I took the B46 bus to the (3) train from Utica to Atlantic Avenue and transfer to the (N) train to 14th Street Union Square. I got to Peridance Center on time with 30 minutes to spare.

Since photo and video recordings are NOT allowed, I didn’t take any. So I watch all their dance pieces including their new piece Cotton which they peformed by Myu to Yu. I always like these 2 dancers and will always be meet whenever is decided. I even spoke to Saki Tokumara. I’m aware that she has 2 more shows before she leaves NYC in June so I’ll do my best to meet her.
