“Of all places!”, you might say and I tend to agree as the occupants of MIzuochi Police Box in Aoi Ku, Shizuoka City, are famously hopeless in a city where’s crime is almost inexistent and where the police is reduced to lurk on bicycles behind large signs to catch traffic offenders!
I didn’t include the police box in my pictures lest its denizens use it as a proof of my malfeasance!
The Mizuochi Police Box is located at the corner of Kitakaido Street and the Eastern Wall of Sumpu Castle Park.
There you can admire the wall and part of its moat.
It is a great spot right now for cherry blossoms visewing, although it will last only a few days especially with rain forecast tomorrow!
The trees are perched on top of the wall and cascade down to the moat!
Good (not like me!) photographers should be able to avoid modern distractions and achieve great results!
Little gems!

That is “cherry”! Absolutely gorgeous. Winter is over. Summer is still tucked safely in the future. I think at this time, everyone falls in love with Japan again.
