feels like Spring

It really feel like Spring is here when you see cherry blossoms in full bloom.

Every year I forget how pretty they are!!

This year I wasn't able to go to any area where the cherry blossoms are famous but I was able to see them bloom in my usual neighborhood.


This is the closed park from where I am. Small park but really great trees.





This was in Shibuya. It's really funny that cherry blossom trees are so appreciated this time of year but you forget the trees lining up the streets are cherry trees.
It is a also great to see them at night specially when it is lit up.
I know it's not that great quality but even my father who was visiting had to stop and capture that moment.


Then a week later another type of cherry blossoms are in full bloom!
They are the type that cascades downward and creates a really pretty walkway by the stream.





Here we are back at the small park. I love how the ground is now covered with the petals.


Rain is also happy that the weather is getting warmer.



The tradition is to have a small get-together and enjoy the cherry trees. There would be more people under the trees just a week before. But I thought this season is really nice, too. It's almost like snow falling but pink petals!



I never get sick of looking at the cherry blossoms every year. So pretty.
And sometime they surprise you by following you all the way home on a train back to you house~
