Why I miss spring in Japan

A friend of mine living in Japan sent me some wonderful photos of the Sakura (Cherry Blossoms) in full bloom, taken at Matsumoto Castle about 15 minutes away from where I lived.

So, I wouldn’t (more of couldn’t!) be wordless today. Look!

When Pristine was like, 2 or 3 years old, she loved to cross this red bridge and jump on it, testing if she could bring it down. Of course she couldn’t. Then she asks, “try it, mom!”. Oh no, I did not take up the challenge. This is a piece of history, I wouldn’t risk it.

The sakuras on the side of the lake is so beautiful. I used to walk alot here during sakura season. I loved to stare at these beauties for as long as I can.

Of the many almost impossible things Dubai is trying to make possible, I bet they couldn’t produce these lovely blooms artificially! Not in a hundred years!

Thank you to my friend, Yuki san who sent me these photos!
