It's hard to believe, but cherry blossom season was almost two months ago! It's also hard to believe that I didn't transfer the photos onto my computer for so long... Anyway, Minami-ku, our area of Yokohama, is known for the cherry blossoms along the Ooka river, about five blocks from our apartment.

During the two week period of sakura we took frequent walks along the river and also enjoyed a hanami party (flower viewing party) at Maita park with a bunch of our friends.

In this last photo on the right you can see a few of the many food and beer vendors that set up along the river, as well as a distant view of Landmark Tower just right of center.
