Hanami in Okazaki

Posted by Damianne President on April 11, 2011

This is a beautiful time of year in Japan with the cherry trees in full bloom. Hanami (flower viewing) is a popular event in April. I went to Okazaki park with some meetup friends for hanami on Sunday. It was a beautiful sunny day with a bright blue sky. We sat beside the water and had a picnic under the sakura. Then we went to see the samurai parade. At the end of the parade, we walked to Okazaki castle where we strolled through the grounds people watching and sakura viewing.
