I’ll admit it. I have a problem. I’m a photo junkie. I cannot go on a vacation without taking hundreds of photos. So, Rick and I actually got new phones before our trip to Japan as we knew we’d be snapping a million pictures of the cherry blossoms and we both wanted those captures to
We were lucky enough to have three great days in Kyoto on our Go Ahead Tours’ trip: Cherry Blossoms in Japan: Tokyo to Kyoto at the end of March. The weather in Kyoto was a lovely change from the rain and cold we were greeted with in Tokyo, and we were thrilled to see the
