If you’re looking for a family-friendly activity this weekend…go to Central Park this coming Sunday, June 1 and celebrate Japan Day. Japan Day is an event designed by the Japanese community of New York to promote deeper understanding of Japanese culture and, to say “Thank you, New York!”

Japan Day 2008 is held in a green oasis in New York City, Central Park’s East Meadow. It will feature the best of traditional and contemporary Japan with a wide range of family-friendly activities and powerful stage performances throughout the day.

It will be a great opportunity for me to practice my photography skills. Hope to see you all there.
