Sakura artists

It is really delightful in the park to see the local artists out savouring every moment of Sakura (Cherry Blossoms).



Chinatown at Night

Sadly many, many restaurants are serving shark fin soup



Beautiful at night down in Chinatown

Trekking Kamakura

Great trekking in the hills of Kamakura.
Visiting temples.
Signs not in english!!



Drum Performance

Wow, this master made it look easy.
He was brilliant, toned and talented!!!
I'm inspired to take lessons.




The Majestic Kamakua

Train or bike get me to the majestic Kamakura.
These pics don't really do it justice. The temples and shrines are so large they are hard to photograph.





Bikes

Bikes come in all shapes and sizes in this country.
I could do with another one!!!
Wonder if any of these would do the job?



Glorious Sakura

The beautiful bloomin' blossoms. It is so hard to choose just a few pics. The trees are stunning.




Rug up for a Ride


Ready to head out in 2 degrees.
