Branch Brook Park's Cherry Blossom Festival

Mary and I just got back from Newark's Branch Brook Park where they were having their annual cherry blossom festival. It's a beautiful park and they could not have picked a better day to display the city's collection of blooming trees. The park is an easy 10 minute ride from Newark Penn station on the City Subway line (same trolley cars and proof-of-payment system that the HiBLeR uses... but for only $1.10 a ride, compared to the HiBLeR's $1.50). Check out some of the pictures we took on my .mac page and consider visiting before the first big rain washing everything away.
