One wish from the April bucket list is already accomplished: I’ve spent a lovely, relaxing afternoon in the cherry park from Amsterdamse Bos! There were quite a few people there, but the place didn’t feel crowded or noisy; the ambience was so pleasant — everyone was marvelling at the beauty of the blossoms, taking pictures, having a picnic or a nap, children were playing and dogs were chasing petals. The perfect place to enjoy a spring day!

If you want to visit, just search “Kersenbloesempark, Amstelveen” on Google Maps and you’ll find the route. Until then, enjoy a short glimpse of the place:
