Ueno Sakura Viewing. When I went there, I confirmed I was a bit late for all of it but it was still hella gorgeous! But late nonetheless. Because of my heavy sched, it's either I'm too early, or a bit late. What is my life? This baby pink Sakura is gorgeous AF! It's also the first time I saw this. I guess traveling alone makes you see things a little better.  Yas! I wasn't actually alone all time. I was to meet friends but as per usual, I don't really like meeting up in Ueno because this already happened 2 years ago and it happened again. Man, when will we learn from our mistakes? I'll tell you in a bit.  Ueno was busy. Just like it is every year. But it was also pretty. Just like it is every year.  Ueno will always be dear to my heart. My family and I used to go there.

Goofy us Goofy us 2.0 Ueno crowd It was full-packed! Even though it was not yet full bloom time. Like, it was the start of Sakura. Literally. We went there March 27, 2016 and the bloom started on the 25th I guess.  Pretty We ate a lot of foods! Okonomiyaki, yaki ika, cow tongue, long fries, and chocolate banana.  It was still pretty though even though it was way too early for the hanami.  Myself and Bry It was beautiful lit up The long fries was interesting and it was delicious! It was actually made from scratch. Not raw potatoes though, duh. Mashed potatoes and it was pushed through this cool little device and cooked in front of us.          lanterns in Ueno After our Hanami, we went to Ueno Market because he wanted to show me where he used to go where he still lived in Ibaraki and would go to his dad. It was nice. I would probably be afraid walking here alone though. Haha Ciao!
