Yoyogi Park~cherry blossom viewing

As we walked to our next destination which is Yoyogi Park, the cool air felt good. I'm glad we are there early with happy crowds of hanami watchers amidst the blooming sakura.
-Many locals among the blue tarps, as sakura season is the public school holiday as well.
Marking their hanami spot with balloon monkeys.  2016 is the year of the monkey.
 -It was fun watching this group of hanami watchers trying to play a game of Twister. 
-We took a stroll around the area where dog owners walk their pets within a fenced area, and playful dogs were running around playing.
-The main area had lots of entertaining people. I heard happy sounds and cheerful laughs. As we got closer I could see why.

- As we walked around people watching, all the happy people put smiles on our faces.


 


-Holding the hand of Marlon while strolling around and looking up at the sakura will be a moment in this adventure I will never forget for the rest of my life.
-Spending time with my BFF Teresa on this once in a lifetime vacation will always be in my memory forever. I could not ask for a better friend.
-Ric, wow, I can't say enough about all his hard work in planning every detail to make our dream come true of being in Japan. 
 -by luck, we even got to see the place where the 2020 Olympics will be held.
