I recently took a day trip to Yamanashi Pref.,
to visit Shiba-zakura Park,
for the “Moss Phlox” festival.
It was an overcast, cool and cloudy day, with raindrops falling at times,
but it was perfect for viewing!
The mountain air was invigorating; and Mt. Fuji was majestic,
and “mist”erious…

After painting, trying some delicious “cherry blossom” ice cream,
taking many photos, and a nice hike around the grounds,
we started back to the car…
We drove to a nearby lake,
to have our packed lunch…

After lunch, we took a scenic drive,
through the mountain forest, along the lake,
until finally arriving at Fujiyama Onsen…
Just wonderful...

It was a fabulous day, a good time was had by all…
I hope to return to Yamanashi,

next month…
