Spring is in bloom.

Recently the sakura or cherry blossom trees have been blooming around Japan.  They are a gorgeous flowering tree that smells awesome.  Around base they have really opened, but since this is our last Spring here in good ol' Japan I wanted to get off of base.  We went into the hills of Ome and went to a cherry blossom grove.  They were not as bloomed as the trees on base, but the view was still worth it.  The kids enjoyed it because they were able to be outside and free to move about.  Mommy liked it because we were far enough out to be the only Americans walking around.  I love just getting lost and not really having to worry about finding our way home.  Seeing new things and just not really having anything we "have" to do.  Here are some photos on the beautiful trees.

Thank you for stopping by today, hope you enjoyed!  Have a great rest of the day!
