korea has amazing cherry blossom trees that are just lovely. the flowers are pale pink and its petals just float off the trees into the sky. i love driving or walking around so i can feel the petals land on my face and hair. there is even a cherry blossom festival that takes places in jinhae to celebrate the blooming of these gorgeous buds.
but, as with many good things, the flower petals soon blow away and the trees are replaced with bright, vibrant green leaves. so, goodbye mr. cherry blossom. i'll miss you.

You know, yesterday afternoon I looked out the window and suddenly felt that the dogwood trees in MO would be blooming now. I miss them-especially the pink dogwoods. I say this bc tres covered in cherry blossoms remind me of dogwoods.
