I think Spring must have encountered this sign, because the cherry trees bloomed in Kyoto this year before they bloomed here, and that’s completely unnatural. It’s slowly warming up-ish, but today was cloudy. I did manage to get my antique Chinese cabinet home and I accidentally bought about $50 worth of Japanese stamps. Stay tuned.

The Botanical Garden sounds amazing! I love unusual statuary and things among plants and trees. Your photos of the blossom are beautiful.
