Right now, I'm packing and emotionally preparing myself to descend upon Kyoto for cherry blossom season. I heard things can get pretty crazy under the fluffy pinkness this time of year, throngs of people having picnics underneath trees, too much sake, and maybe even a fight or two breaking out...
There's also a storm front going through and a chance all the delicate blossoms will have been blown away by the wind.
In any case, until I get back next week and report on the mayhem, check out an article I recently wrote for BootsNAll travel network.

Oh no...not a storm!!! We are headed to Tokyo this weekend and planning to stop by Ueno Park to see the blossoms....hope they are still there!!
The blossoms are "peaking" in Washington DC on Thursday, April 1!

looking forward to your update and pics upon your return.
Love the creamy white and pink of cherry blossoms! Can't wait to hear about your trip.
I have to say, it's kinda funny to think about fights breaking out when people are trying to enjoy cherry blossoms!
