• Park visit..

  This was the entrance to Shinjuku park…so we decided not to get in line…

  

  So we went to Yoyogi Park instead…

  

  

  

  

  

  This is what it looked like…everywhere..

  

  

  

  We did manage to find a spot further into the park where it was a little bit less crowded…

  

  It was crowded beyond belief, but still a lot of fun, people watching as much as enjoying the cherry blossoms and taking part of this massive celebration!

  We took a day off from the cherry blossoms…and walked to a favourite park…but it’s not easy to have a day off…the city is full of blossoms..

  Hanami is very organised,  with lots of places to sit and eat. Lots of food and drinks. And places for garbage…

  

  

  It is pretty crazy…so busy..

  

  

  

  

  Max and I had to do as the locals do. Therefor the obligatory selfies in front of the blooming trees…

  Max and I walked along Meguro river. From Meguro, where it’s wider to Naka Meguro where it’s more narrow and the branches meet over the water. It was absolutely breathtaking.  So beautiful. Very crowded, but it did not matter…

  Max and I took the train up to Ueno park, one of the top spots for cherry blossoms.  It was incredibly crowded, but still nice for admiring sakura… and for people watching…

  Hanami is the Japanese celebration of Sakura, the cherry blossom. It’s the time to go out and admire the beautiful scenery, sit under the cherry trees and have picnics.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  We made the full circle around the Imperial palace, a great walk full of lovely flowers, not only the cherry blossoms… Still early season though..we will go back…
