We spent Friday night walking along a river lined with cherry blossoms. It was breathtaking.
Unfortunately, it rained all day on Saturday so we enjoyed the view from the car.
This is a shot from Kyoto we took the previous weekend.
And this one was taken near Nagoya Castle the previous week.
On Sunday, Travis had a baseball game so I went to cheer him on. 
After Travis' game, we took a picnic to a nearby park to enjoy hanami. Hanami means flower viewing in Japanese (hana=flower and mi=view). It basically consists of friends and family enjoying the cherry blossoms by going to a park, barbecuing, drinking and playing games. After Saturday's rain, Sunday was so beautiful. We spent the rest of the day "park hopping."
The weather here is beautiful, and Andrea will arrive around 6 p.m. this evening. So excited!! Hopefully we'll be able to see sakura for at least another week or so.

Gorgeous! By the way, who's the great photographer? I love the one with sun rays filtering through the tree.
Hmm...we are both surrounded by cherry blossoms and yet so far apart. Sad.
Well, I wish I could take credit for it, but Travis is the one who took the photo you referenced. He gets a good one every now and then. :)
