When she had finished, she and Taro and the Father bowed politely to the old woman.
"Sayonara," they said. That means "good-bye."
The old woman bowed. "Sayonara," she called to them.
The Twins and their Father walked on. They soon found the dolls' garden. In it were many tiny pine trees like theirs at home. There were little plum trees, and bamboos, and a tiny tea-house in it. There was a pond with a little bridge, too.
"Oh!" cried Take, "if it only had little bells on the plum trees, this would be the very garden I sang about to Bot'Chan; wouldn't it?"
She stooped down and peeped under the little trees.
"Let's play we are giants!" she said to Taro.
"Giants roar," said Taro.
"You roar," said Take. "It wouldn't be polite for a lady giant to roar!"
"Giants are different. They don't have to be polite," Taro explained.
