day 109 - last hurrah for hanami











Last Saturday we enjoyed illuminated sakura at the Hana-Akari Festival. On Monday night we shared a final hanami picnic dinner with friends in the castle grounds... swirling little flurries of pale pink sakura snow dropped petals in our sushi and sake...

1. Straw-bandaged pine

4. I'm being followed by a pine shadow...
5. Castle-gate sunset
6. The last hurrah
7. Lights on the moat
