Sakura and Dad’s Arrival

By Drew

Yesterday my dad came to Japan, so I went to pick him up at the airport. On the way I had to go through Himeji, so I decided to stop and see the cherry blossom festival, because it is really famous at Himeji Castle. Anyway, it was all really nice looking, but just about everyone in Japan was there so it was a little crowded. Then I took the bus to the airport, got my dad, and took the bus back.

Today we went to Takeda Castle, which was really good cause the weather was nice, and then to Kinosaki and Takeno up north. Kinosaki also had tons of cherry blossoms, so it looked really nice. Takeno Beach was also pretty nice, even if it was too cold to do more than just look at it. There’s a highway that runs along the cliffs on the coast though, so that was interesting to drive along. Anyway, here are a few pictures:
