The assignment:
In the third week after my arrival in
Japan I finally started my illustration class assignment. We were given
the assignment to make a picturebook image for the
story of the classic Grimm story “Little Red Riding-hood”.

Aoi Matsuri
On May 15th I was insane enough to wake up at 6:00 and to actually be sitting on a little blanket with sandwich in hand at 8:00 on the front-row in the Imperial Palace garden.
Why would I do such a thing on my free thursday you ask? Because I had been told 1 out of the top 3 festivals in Kyoto would start there at 10:30, the Aoi Matsuri. And to have the best view you HAD to be there at 8...
There was in the end so it seemed, no need to be there at 8 as there were still loads of front-row spots left around 10am.
