[biwako]

hey guys,

my trip next year has always been planned for april to coincide with the sakura,
my other main objective is to do some bass fishing at lake biwa,

reading a few of the recent posts i see that travel in April can be pretty full on,
i have noticed airfaires are double the price here in australia in april as opposed to march or may. is there really that much to the cherry blossoms or would one be satisfied after seeing them once?

i guess what im getting at is, am i better off delaying my trip until may when there will be less people traveling around and i can get cheaper flights..?
any tips appreciated,

hey also obviously cherry blossom season has the attraction of the blossoms themselves and fall the maple leaves. can anyone tell me what the landscape is like in may? is this when everthing starts to green up? and one more would there be snow on Fuji if we were to catch a glimpse mid way through May.

thanks again and look forward to any response,

Ben
