Tuesday 16 March 2010: Cherry Blossoms Light Dancing on Tree Trunk

Saw these lovely cherry blossoms entangled with little white lights on the trees outside the mall tonight. Our local mall -Crossroads--is a wonderful gathering place. It was actually designed to be like an old time marketplace where folks would gather and socialize and it works! There are a variety of amazing tasty ethnic restaurants in range from southern Indian to Thai to Mexican to Chinese to Italian to pizza to Russian to Vietnamese to Japanese bento boxes or noodles to Korean and on and on. Several nights there is live entertainment all free--music, dancing , poetry etc. There are some main anchor stores too like a big grocery store, major music store and a bed , bath and beyond. Surrounding the outside are these love cherry trees as well as flowers and vines climbing trellises. We had dinner here tonight which is always a treat!! And a couple games of farkel:)
