Hanami Photoshoot with the Lego Geisha

  “Hanami” (literally “flower watching” in Japanese) is everyone’s favorite activity in Japan late March, early April. It consists in watching the cherry blossoms that are ubiquitous all over the country. It also often consists in eating and drinking a lot with friends and/or coworkers,...

Building Ninjago City (Part Five)
