Sakura (cherry blossoms)

As promised, here are some pictures of the sakura or cherry blossoms in our area. The photos do not capture the beauty of the actual sight. I hope you enjoy!

This is the main street across from our neighborhood.



This is the street leading to Sankein Garden.


The 2 pictures just above are from Sankein Garden that is about a 5 minute walk from our house. You should recognize some of the scenery from previous posts.
