Even if the snow and rain are putting a damper on the spring mood, the beautiful cherry blossom trees are slowly beginning to bloom. And their splendor is sure to make you forget the odd lockdown worry. In Japan, marveling at cherry blossom trees is a real event and we think it could also find its way here. Grab a picnic blanket, some snacks and make yourself comfortable under one of the beautiful trees.
