Japanese Garden Party
Sunday 23 May, 2010
The Japan’s first major exhibition to the West took place in White City, London in 1910. The Japanese garden was created as a part of the exhibtion and today the garden still stands exactly in the same place as 100 years ago. This festival celebrates the centenary of the creation of the garden and the Japan-British Exhibition 1910.

Thank you so much for letting us know about this event Catherine.
It was so well organised. The costumes were magnificent, the food was delicious, the entertainment (singers, dancers, martial arts, Taiko...)was so superb: we totally forgot we were still in London !!!
Shannon got her shopping done (biscuits,sweets,drinks,and her very own Japanese tea cup to recreate her version of the Tea Ceremony every day !)
And to top it all, your son Rodolphe and my children all participated in a Japanese language class where the other students were left mouth opened wide to witness 4 children knowing so much already ! So all credit to you Catherine ! You do an excellent job.
