The cherry blossoms around YIEA were absolutely beautiful this year.
On the day they hit full bloom, the weather wasn’t the best—strong rain and wind made it hard to really enjoy hanami.
But once the sun came out, even though some petals had already started to fall, the view was still amazing. It felt like we caught the tail end of something really special.

Finally, some sunshine!
You can even see the Landmark Tower right in front of you.
There’s also a peaceful Japanese garden inside the park.
