The Cherry Blossoms

Walking about the pink and white blossoms on more than 2,700 Japanese Cherry Trees...
exploring Branch Brook Park was a dream come true.

New Jersey has more Cherry Trees than Washington, D.C.,
this display is the largest in the United States.
















I am adding that this day was perfect. Full sun, blue skies and the temperature was 68 degrees.

I took so many more pictures, that I will share on Monday.
Critters tomorrow!
