Obento May 6, 2010

Our no bento days passed so my bentomaking started again today.  We had a long weekend. (Or should I say *Belated spring holiday*?)  Many national holidays concentrate at this time.  We call it *Golden Week* in Japan.  Those who had the longest golden week took a 7-day holiday.  We had only 5 days.  Although we usually enjoy an Ohanami picnic during golden week, cherry trees this year don't yet start to blossom at all in our area, booo  So I missed a chance to make a ohanami bento.  But we were able to enjoy some trips around.
