Cherry Blossoms

Cherry blossoms are everywhere in South Korea! On the weekend I went to Jinhae's Cherry Blossom Festival! It was absolutely beautiful there. It was a breath taking place and I truly enjoyed every second of it. However, I did not like the waiting at the bus terminals in Sasang (Busan) and then again in Jinhae. I waited in line at Sasang's bus terminal for 1.5 hours before my friend Soko and I were able to get on a bus. The bus ride was only 1 hour and 10 minutes. On our way back to Busan, we waited in line for 2.5 hours. It was brutal. Thank goodness we got in line at a reasonable time. The line was super long (as you can see from the picture), and the line was still like that after Soko and I got on the bus. Anyways, enjoy the wonderful cherry blossom pictures!
On Sunday, I went to Dalmaji Hill and took more local cherry blossom pictures. Cherry blossoms were always my favourite kind of trees, well after mango trees, but they are indeed pretty. Too bad Canadian weather is not appropriate for these lovely trees. If it was, I would recommend every home buyer in the future to buy a cherry blossom tree for their backyard! The pics from Dalmaji Hill were really good and less crowded.
This last picture shows the cherry blossoms on my school mountain. Like I said, it's everywhere and I like it a lot! Overall, it was a fantastic weekend of exploring!
