Nago Cherry blossom festival Feb 2010

I am backkkkkk! so it's been a while since i last updated....Sooo Gilbert deployed last month and a week after he deployed, my lovely friends took me out to the Nago cherry blossom festival. Compared to the one is San Francisco, i must say there were actually cherry blossoms all around and good food. I am a little sad that Gilbert didn't get to see the cherry blossoms this year...but there is always next year =) So here are some pictures:

Ready set goooo! Kathleen and her new canon~

I think there was an Orion beer factory nearby but we didn't go to it.

This is a banyan tree. Man it was amazing looking.
