Cherry Blossom Season

Cherry Blossom Season happens around the beginning of April in Japan. Ohanami (お花見) is the title of the Season, literally "flower viewing". Celebrating the season generally involves people going to a park and picnicing underneath the trees with friends, eating, drinking, playing games, etc.

This was our first time to witness Ohanami season, and we loved it! The trees are truly breathtaking, and we enjoyed the time with friends as well! Seth and I spent a date-day at the Okazaki park over our Spring Break, enjoying the Sakura (Cherry blossom trees). There were hundreds of people, food vendors, games, etc.
Also, after church on Easter, all of Mustard Seed Christian Church went together for Ohanami. It was a fantastic way to get to know the people at our church better. Please enjoy the pictures from Ohanami Season!
