Family trip to Matsumoto-jo

On a beautiful March Sunday, our family headed to the city of Matsumoto, to see Matsumoto-jo, 松本城.

Known as the "Crow Castle" for its black walls and 'wings', it's a national treasure and one of the few remaining, intact castles.

Views of the surrounding mountains and all their snowy splendor!

Spring has sprung, and here's the blossom to prove it! Still debating on whether it's a cherry or plum tree blossom.
Kelso loved coming on the road trip! Here we are in front of the castle and the new blooms.
