My first Hanji
Our surprise plan today got canceled because the weather was much more rainy than it was supposed to be. So instead I went with Luna to her last day at “school”.

And for a good digestion we played in arcade room, where Luna has the annoying habit to last longer than me in Time Crisis. Shame on me.

You must enable sound to really enjoy that video.
