Internationalisation

On the JET program, we hear over and over again about internationalisation. It is a big word. The emphasis is on bringing the rest of the world to Japan. I like to think that I do my part by taking Japan to the rest of the world as well...
A very serious AJ at the recent 'Osaka Festival' in Melbourne. I sent the yukata pattern to his Mum. She whipped it up in a flash and a bit of help from a Japanese friend.Milla being very 'unJapanese' in her pink yukata. Look at that puku (tummy)!

We had so much fun at the Osaka festival, but we can't wait until you can take us there next year!

Major puku alert! I webcammed with Mum and Demi-chan on Sunday, her little summer clothes are so cute and her (not so little) puku was in full glory. I wonder if Uniqlo will bring out new yukatas this summer?

Like the tongue accompanying the belly. Together with the yukata, it's quite a blend of culture.
