Wisteria Festival

The Wisteria Festival ended on the last day of Golden Week (in May), but this is an annual festival. If you missed it this year try to go next year! The Wisteria trees are beautiful with the way they drape down and move lightly in the gentle breeze.

 Just an FYI there are some bees that hang around these flowers. They aren't hornets or anything (I think they are a type of honey bee), but they were much bigger than bumblebees that I was used to seeing in Seattle. I was a little freaked out when I first saw them, but if you don't bother them then they won't bother you. So, just keep moving along and you will be fine like I was. : )
