さくら。。。

It's that time of year again.  さくら or cherry blossom season!  This time of year hoards of Japanese people swarm to parks to sit under the blooms and have 花見 parties. Last weekend the boyfriend and I went to 新宿御苑 and sat under the gorgeous trees.  We had to battle mobs of people to get there but the views were well worth it.

Here are some pics:

Happy Spring!
