It's the time of the year for pink, pink and more pink! This year, we made it a point to visit the Gardens at the start of the entire festival just so these blooms can be viewed in their full glory. We visited a tad too late last year and the blooms were not their prettiest.

It does look like sakura in Japan eh? Not that I've ever been there during the Sakura Matsuri season but Gardens always does a very fine job with this exhibition.

There were these smaller exhibits that showcased iconic attractions known for Sakura and here we have them in such miniature scales without even visiting the place! Cheap thrill.

Just how many varieties of sakuras are there?

The closest we got to getting us all in and the pretty pink blooms.

I love how the stalls are housed within the Flower Dome this year and not outdoor since the weather can be so unforgiving, I even picked up a sakura chiffon at the bazaar!

And that wraps up the overdue post on this year's Sakura Matsuri! Just one fine day we will make our way to Japan to see them in person.
