cherry blossoms Japan

In the spring of 2017, we returned to Australia to visit family. We bracketed this trip with visits to Japan (a first for both of us) and the Philippines (a first for just one of us, bringing our “countries visited” count equal again). Although we were in an arrivals lounge in Hong Kong, and in transit hotels in both Kuala Lumpur and Singapore airports (on air side), we’re not really counting any of those places as “visited” on this trip!

No gallery, slideshow, nor videos available yet. Because this was mostly a family trip, we were incredibly slow been slow to post pictures. We do have some great shots of cherry blossom season in Kyoto, but the feature image above was the only teaser for years. You can see posts from this trip by clicking on the links below:
