Sakura Watch 2013 - Day 1

When I posted the sakura photo on Saturday I didn't think actual sakura were anywhere nearby, but with the Tokyo Meteorological Office giving official word that sakura season was upon us, well...

The sakura near me are still mostly buds, but here is day one!

  2. Oooh, I loved this when you did it last year. Apparently we are going to get 20-30cm of snow tonight and tomorrow. BOO.

    1. This year I found a branch that doesn't have me taking pictures into the sun at lunch and is close enough so I can actually do a close up, I'm hoping that means better pictures.

      One of the other trees was showering down white petals today... Not the se as snow I guess, however! At least your summer will be more bearable!
