This post is the seventh in a series of nine illustrating my trip to Japan and the second of two illustrating my sixth day in Japan (March 26th).

All along the walk, cherry blossoms were beginning to bloom.
I know, I know… One complete meal at McDonalds was necessary. I had to see if the Big Mac was the same as the US version and yes, it was. No, it wasn’t very good anyway (I’m not a fan of McD’s). I did get to try a drink called Qoo, which ended up being the highlight of the meal.
Here are some panoramas shot over the course of the day:
