As some of you already know, this last week has been the week when the cherry blossom trees blossom in Japan. cherry blossoms This is a mad-house national event, in Japan, and EVERYONE makes a point of getting out to view the flowers. As it happens, I ended-up heading out to various places 5 or 6 times this year, and got to REALLY appreciate the festivities:) Most people go with friends or coworkers and spend the day/evening drinking, relaxing and generally enjoying the first hints of Spring. If EVER a man needed more time in his schedule book, this would be it!
