Iris Flavia said...

And with sweet memories - not that I´ve ever been there... but my parents were!
In Japan, not in this place ;-)

Ella said...

This is the "samurai" who will defeat Corrine?
Oh wait ... it's a she, right? Then no smuray is Cio-Cio-San (nicknamed Butterfly)! Am I right or not?
When I had very long hair, sometimes I put it on with the Mikado sticks ... do you know Mikado game?
I wish you a very good week and I send you a very big hug! xoxo

Iris Flavia said...

Ella. You seriously ask a Hathi if he knows the Mikado-game?!
One that does not like sweets even ;-)
And the one with thin hair, you "kill" me! LOL
Thank you, I burned some calories laughing.
I´ll add a pic on the post for Tom for you...

Ella said...

No ... I mean the game Mikado! That game where chopsticks have to be picked up ... you know? Not the "sweet stuff"! Bleah!
I swear I don't want to kill you ... softly! Hahahaha …
xoxo

A nice mural, by the looks of it. Is it on a street wall, or part of a shop, or advertising a restaurant?

Iris Flavia said...

The latter, see Wednesday :-)

River said...

I remember a little Japanese from when I watched the TV mini-series Shogun many years ago. I don't get the pronunciation correct, but recognise a word or two still.

Iris Flavia said...

I sadly don´t know the series, but The Simpsons sure have some episodes on Japan :-)

s.c said...

Don't see that often on the street.

Sami said...

Konnichiwa Iris :)
Thanks for participating, it's a sweet looking lady.

Iris Flavia said...

s.c. it´s the only one I know here.

Queen comes to mind, as in Freddie Mercury :-)

Iris Flavia said...

Yup, you two :-)

My name is Erika. said...

I know that Japanese word. When I went to Japan 2 years ago, our guide and now friend, owned a coffee shop named that. I am excited to see a word I know. I would never recognize it in Japanese writing however. happy Monday to you.

Jackie McGuinness said...

Lovely word and mural.

magiceye said...

This is beautifully done.

PerthDailyPhoto said...

This is beautifully done Iris, the colours are so vibrant 💛

Iris Flavia said...

Erika, the word is thanks to google translate ;-) Wednesday you find the rest.
Nice your guide became your friend! A happyMonday to you, too!

Jackie - google - google - Jacky, sorry, too tempting.
It´s a Sushi restaurant, I just chose the word cause it was morning over here.

____

magiceye, yes, I agree.

Grace, yes, and on such a grey day, too!

gigi-hawaii said...

Nice to see Japanese art for a change.

Iris Flavia said...

Well, sadly I don´t even like raw fish!

Mae Travels said...

Separating the "real Japan" from the stereotypes is challenging. Is that painted outdoors on a wall somewhere? Interesting.

be well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com

Stevenson said...

Ohayo Iris-san! Arigatou for sharing this beautiful mural of a geisha! It reminded me of one of the most beautiful films I have seen in my life, Memoirs of a Geisha. Have you seen that movie? if not, please do iris! That is a treasure!

The Padre said...

Love That Style

Cheers

Iris Flavia said...

Mae, yes, a restaurant, more in two days :-)

Stevenson, I bet you´ll laugh a lot if you come by here Wednesday! :-)
I haven´t seen the movie, but read a few books on the subject.

Padre, it´s unique, is it.

Stevenson said...
