The Cherry Blossoms At Branch Brook Park, NJ

 Branch Brook Park in Essex County, NJ 
 has the largest and most diverse collection of Cherry Blossom Trees in the United States.
The park is 360 acres and has more than 6,300 flowering cherry blossom trees in 18 varieties.
Although Washington D.C. is thought to be the Cherry Blossom capital of the world,
this park has more trees than the capital.

In the past, we have gone to Washington, DC to see the cherry blossoms there, although breathtaking,
it is very crowded and almost impossible to navigate.
Here the trees are in a larger area and much easier to photograph. and enjoy.

Now let's get to the good stuff, the pictures!



















Here we are...at the end of another awesome day!
