..who knew?..

so who knew that there are hundreds of cherry blossom trees in wahiawa? not me! yesterday while i was at work my mommy called me to tell me we are going to wahiawa. My first thought was, "huh? where is that?" and my second thought was "what in the heavens for?" So i was imagining waianae in my head and even today when i was telling my friend over lunch what i did yesterday i mentioned that i went to waimanalo. sigh, i need to get out more often. hehe.
anyway...there are hundreds of cherry blossom trees in bloom in wahiawa right now! pretty pretty flowers! A branch was brought from Japan long long long ago and it was passed around the community. These trees are very special to the Japanese cultural and they can only be grown in very very cold areas. I think i need a house in Wahiawa just so i can have a cherry blossom tree in my yard! even though i would prolly get lost everyday going home. =P
here are a few of the pics i took...the first is one of my favorites. i don't believe i took such a pic...haha...i'm proud of me! =)

Wow that first picture is really good. Looks professional. You are hilarious by the way. Freak, I lived there for less than 2 years and saw every inch of the island (including the end of the road in waianae). You city girl you.
