I grew up next to a cherry blossom park. The bloom is such a short moment, but when they bloom all at the same time gosh I've never found anything else more beautiful.
It has been 15 years that I haven't been back in Japan in April, I wanted to let my children see what I've always told them about so many times.
It was so very beautiful I must say, but I completely forgot that there are so many blooming people visiting to see the cherry blossoms! It's funny how we tend to glorify the things we loved. Anyways our children loved it, loved Japan, we had such a great fun, my parents took us to visit many places, and over all we ate so much good stuff.
On the way back to Switzerland after 3 weeks, I asked my son to describe Japan in one word, his reply without any hesitation: "Paradise!"
