We were filming #kiku #matsuri or crysanthemum festival for #NHK in #Nihonmatsu, #Fukushima prefecture. I passed a car and saw this cutiepie and had to hold it! I love, love, love dogs!!! I chose this pic for 12/31/2011 as I wanna be reminded of Fukushima and its wonderful people, lovely animals and plants who all need our support and love at these very difficult times. Pls visit #Japan and once here, pls go to the #Tohoku region and see the beauty of Fukushima! Thanks!
