Deck the Halls with Cherry Blossoms
'Tis the season to be blooming, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la~
Winter season is finally over, and you know what that means: it's cherry blossom season!
Spring is definitely my favorite season, even though it's (sadly) very short. I love seeing the flowers bloom, bushes reveal their green buds, and just seeing color start to appear from all of the brown. It's amazing how quickly they start popping up once they get going, and pretty soon it's spring wonderland.
It's my first time enjoying spring in Korea, and I'm glad I got to see some cherry blossoms before all the rain and wind washed them all away.
