Cherry Blossom Festival

Its April 4, Saturday. The sun shines as bright as the flowers bloom in Kamiseya ground where Sakura Festival was held.

So many people gathered around, families, friends and different countries as well. They brought food and snacks with them to share with under this flower viewing. its my first time to see then such an amazing flowers, and so excited!

There are food sales around too, and half of the vendors are Americans. The crowd were so lively with games and some presentations. full of people and caused of trafic too..

My husband and i with Masataka with us, enjoyed walk around. when we were hungry we ate and walk again, whoa.. that was in the morning. in the afternoon, my husband and i go back to Hanami (Sakura Festival) and spent time to walk along highway of Sakura trees. i felt lucky to experience my first spring time in Japan and joined Sakura Festival.

This Sakura flowers appeared once in a year, until it reaches to its full bloom in the beginning of spring around April. Hanami or flower viewing could only experience once in a year, and Cherry Blossom flowers lasted for two weeks..


that was me and Masataka
