Full Bloom (Finally) Hits Kyoto

During a short drive this morning, it was readily apparent that the cherry blossoms had hit full bloom overnight, as the area offered a dramatically different view than yesterday. I didn't have much time, but did stop to snap the pic above (which certainly does nothing to lend justice to the actual beauty of the scene). It was quite overcast, which mutes the pictures much more than the actual scene.

Unfortunately, I'm coming down with a cold, so slept most of the day. I have to go out in the late afternoon, so will bring my camera along to see if I can get any better shots.
