Dale at Park

Took Dale (female border collie) to the a local park late in the morning. Although it was still cold outside, the sun was strong enough and the sky clear enough to quickly warm one up.

Chilly Mary

Mary is quite susceptible to cold weather. So before we go on a walk, she needs to be bundled up to keep from shivering!

Winter Fruit Tree Blossoms

Late winter and early spring in Yokohama is one of my favorite times of the year. We can enjoy plum blossoms, cherry blossoms, and winter citrus fruit.

Winter Morning Flowers

One thing I like about Yokohama is the the mild winter weather. Even during this time of year, which is still relatively cold, there are many flowers that are able to bloom due to the mild weather.
