Capitol - Salem, Oregon

 


We plan to go to Dallas, Oregon, but we made a diversion to the Capitol in Salem when we heard there is TAIKO performance and spring festival. We arrive just before 9:00 in the morning and parking is still a breeze, when we left close to noon, it was packed, free parking is hard to come buy.

Hanami - the art of viewing the cherry blossoms

 


The weather is perfect, meaning no rain and overcast, just after sunrise, I spend about 40 minutes exploring the cherry blossoms, I can ask for a better weather. Roberta Lang informed me the day before since she lives on that street.
