Beetle Larvae

Moms and dads. They emerged in early June. There were about 3 times more of them but I released 2/3 of them back in the nature.

Soda Pudding

Topped with soda flavored thing instead of caramel. Not bad.

Fanta Cola

Not bad. I would buy more if diet is available.

Rolly & Hacchan

I thought these cats live in Inokashira park but it turned out they are from a cafe near the park.

UCLA Extension

Found a UCLA extension. They offer a cosplay hostess club course only. It doesn't require 4.0+ GPA to enter this UCLA.

Ganges River Dolphin

A specimen at National Museum of Science in Ueno. I guess this dolphin would have been cute when it was still alive.

Tanabata

Tanabata festival is coming soon on July 7th. Kids make a wish, write it down on a paper strip, and put it on bamboo leaves with some decorations. It's fun to read their wishes. A bit awkward Japanese adds cuteness to their wishes.

"I want everybody to be happy this year."

"I want my mom to stay healthy."

"I want to meet a new family without any problem." Huh? I hope this kid is talking about his dog or cat. Japanese allows to omit the subject so it's difficult to tell who is going to meet a new family.

Forgot to take a picture but one wish strip says, "I want to be an Ultraman."

Hanako

Eating cabbages while zoo staff are cleaning her play ground

Hanako (lit. flower child) is a female elephant at a local zoo in Kichijoji. She came from Thailand 56 years ago when she was two. She is the oldest elephant in Japan today.

She looks sad. Maybe all elephants look like her close up. Considering domestic elephants die much earlier than wild ones, she must be spending a happy life, I hope. At least she is loved by locals.
