Picnic is such a romantic idea in this city jungle.
Green grass, blue sky, and happy people – that’s right, people. Thousands of
people crammed into the same park, everyone with the very same romantic idea as
you.
At first you get excited at the fresh smell of the
soil, the dancing leaves of the tress,
the size of the jumbo ants, etc. Practically everything in the park makes you
go ooh and ahh.
But slowly you notice the uneven surface of the
ground you are lying on, the blinding hot sunshine, the noise from all the kids
and dogs around, etc. Then you start to miss your comfortable sofa at home.
Picnics in Tokyo are very different from those you
imagine in the west. Basically they are just big outdoor parties here. Food is
the main entertainment. Oh and of course people drink too. In fact, many get so
pissed that they become comatose.
I love parties. And I love food. Give me a picnic
anytime. But we have to be careful though. Too much nature a day is dangerous to our health!
