Sakura hunting with Himitsu~!
The weather turned out quite nice on Saturday afternoon and we decided last minute to go Sakura hunting and got bluestarbaby to come with us.
Himitsu and Hitomi on a date? lol! Himitsu and Hitomi hung out before XD
Hitomi with Tsun tsun Taiga :3
lol didn’t change Taiga’s clothes from the day before, Taiga not pleased ^^;
There was a couple doll meets being planned out over the weekend and I wasn’t sure if we were going for both days, we ended up catching some of the doll peeps about to leave when we arrived at Queen Elizabeth park :P
After walking around and only finding loads of bare patches, finally found the trees which actually are blooming ^^; Hitomi looks like an ojouchan! ^o^
Quite a lot of people in the park despite that it wasn’t much in bloom at the time, people were curious about our dolls etc ^^;
Himitsu is wearing the same Yukata top piece I made, but I managed to squeeze out of the left over fabric a shorter skirt part for her to wear, for different look :3
It’s always very satisfying to be able to let a dollfie stand on her own for photos XD But keep in mind a light breeze can cause them to fall over ^^;
I love this pose a lot, too bad it’s a bit overexposed >_<
Too bad the blossoms and park were a bit dead still ^^; The best blossom photos I managed to take turned out to be back in Richmond! I believe this park in front of Richmond Public Market is called Lang Park.
bluestarbaby put the blossom on Himitsu’s head XD Kawaii~!
fuwa fuwa sakura! I definitely took way more photos when the trees are cooperating lol!
One of the most difficult photo to take lol had to borrow a bottle from bluestarbaby to make it possible XD
My husband has some blossom pix to share as well :) Thanks for looking! ^o^
It’s too bad we caught you guys before we had to go ^^; It was still a nice surprise, lol. LoL seems like there are more sakura blooming outside of the park than inside the park XD
yah man, and it felt like we were all too early, most plants are still kinda sleeping ^^;
This set of photos are so nice! :D The weather is better that day too huh?
I love the short yukata, she looks so spunky. :>
we were very very lucky to still have some blue skies by the time we got back to richmond lol! at the QE park it was still kinda grey ^^;
Thanks for hanging out with mee XD
I love the photo with the sakura blossom and bird in the background. XD
XD Thanks for hanging too lol Look forward to see your post <3
Cute photos! Thought of doing a hanami last weekend too but friends were pretty much tied up. (Or they didn’t fancy me hauling a DD along… who knows? XD )
The best moment to catch the blooming sakura is quite fleeting, once they bloom a mere day with a heavy rain shower or blazing hot sun can make them wither quite fast.
awww! It’s hard to go on your own I guess ^^; and I gotta agree they are rather fleeting =_=; and if the weather is crappy, the best part of the bloom can be ruined >_<
