Cherry Blossom Season (Is Over)

Most all of my friends living in Japan have already posted their sakura (cherry blossom) pictures weeks ago; after all, the blossoms have long since fallen off the trees and been replaced by bright green leaves.  However, for a girl who had never knowingly seen a cherry blossoms before, the pictures are still exciting enough to post here, weeks after the fact.

The street that runs from my work to the "big" supermarket

Cherry blossoms at Maizuru Castle

Pathway to a temple near my apartment

Nighttime cherry blossoms at Nirasaki Station

Why, no, I don't know what that lantern says, but it's still cool!
