By now, you must have seen those pinkish trees on the side of the road. If you were seeing those trees everyday you would have noticed suddenly on one morning all of them had turned pink! Literally over a night! I always wondered how they do that. How they all know precisely which day they should turn pink! Anyway, if you thought those just blossomed Cherry trees were pretty, imagine walking in between rows and rows of them! Yes, you can do that at Brooklyn Botanical Gardens Cherry Esplanade this weekend and the next. They have something called Cherry Blossom Festival that I try to catch every year and it’s pretty darn amusing. If you go this weekend then you will enjoy less crowd and fresh bloom. If you go next weekend then you will have to deal with loads of people all around but you can also catch many events related to Japanese culture including taiko drumming, traditional Japanese dance and music, tea ceremonies, craft demonstrations, Bonsais and workshops. You decide!
