cherry blossoms

I'm finally managing to sort myself out now after a few days. I am still going through my photos but thought I'd share some of my cherry blossoms with you. We were so lucky, our holiday coincided perfectly with the main *sakura* weekend of the season, the one when everyone is out and enjoy the ephemeral beauty of those tiny flowers. Enjoy!

  1. That's so beatiful!! In Spain we also have "sakura" in a place called "Valle de Jerte". If you go to an British supermarket and find Spanish cherries, most of them come from this place. I have never been there though, hope to go some day since Japan is a little farther!
