Japan Tour - Cherry Blossoms 2017
The Japan travel itch has struck again. Every few years the desire to go back to this magnificent country seems to overwhelm all logic and reason, and we book another trip. A visit during Sakura season was always on the bucket list, and honestly I never expected to tick it off. But, as luck would have it, the stars aligned and we're off to sample the madness of cherry blossom season in Japan.
