ok...I admit it....

.....I've gone crazy for cherry blossoms...like the rest of Japan.....I just couldnt help it! But our 'hanami' picnic didnt start off too well..................biggest tantrum I've ever seen!!...a whopper......
....these tiny flowers have an amazing effect on everyone...and truly, when they are seen together, they are an amazing sight. This is another park which is seldom visited (except for this time of year) and is very family friendly and surrounded by cherry blossom trees.....

...these two spend a fair bit of time together, its nice for moochy to have his own buddies.....


.....this guy is walking into the area of cherry blossom tress, it is kind of illuminated...in the back ground...thats all the trees.....breathtaking....



...and here is everyone....enjoying the lovely day!...and in true Tokyo style, the peak viewing day (Sunday) is going to rain....so many, many people are out enjoying the moment when they can :)....

...we joined a small party where everyone brought some homemade goodies......I love these kinds of picnics...


...after a few too many rice balls, we just sat and enjoyed making new buddies, well, I did while loved one and mooch were off exploring in the leaves and trees, with the other Dad's...............so, so pretty and lovely and Japanese.
