The year 2020 signaled a period where cherry blossoms budded amidst a pandemic, past a time where we traditionally gathered under the umbrella of cherry blossoms (sakura), celebrating our merry time among friends and loved-ones, exchanging pleasantries over a cup of sake and fancy feast delights while admiring their parade of views. Today marks the third budding season for these cherry blossoms. I may not be able to share stories in person; I am hopefully wishing to admire these views of sakura in full bloom with everyone. But rest assured, they too will blossom ever beautifully than anywhere else, here at Tokyo for everyone. Are you fond of cherry blossoms sitting in moats across the Imperial Palace? or coveted views from a boat down the Sumida River? How about cherry blossoms dancing along the late-night silhouettes of Roppongi and Shinjuku? The list goes on and on. I would sure love to show you these spots! Hopefully we'll chance upon the cherry blossoms greeting us by next spring, here, in Tokyo!
