Sakura and wood carvings

The Aonogahara train station is a minute walk from our house here in Ono City.  Every spring the eight huge cherry (sakura) trees are in full bloom in April.  People from all over come to take photos of these gorgeous trees.   

There is a wood carver near us and these are some of what he has done--bears and other critters.  Very life like.
