Cherry Blossoms....

Cherry Blossoms! Wow....It was quite a site!I went to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden last Saturday and walked for hours. I truly felt euphoric...what beautiful trees and colors!There are LOTS of blossoming trees but there are two main "lanes" that people can stroll through. Each lane forms a "blossom" bridge that you can walk under. It is breathtaking!Every year they have a festival at the gardens. It goes along with the Hanami festival (flower viewing) in Japanese culture. I don't think I'll make it this year....but I can imagine that it would be very neat to see the people dressed in traditional Japanese clothing beneath the blossoms.

I have about 600 more pictures I could post here....wow! I LOVE them all!
