I haven't been to the places mentioned in the japan-guide.com report but to me they are getting close to full here in Kyoto. I went by the Hirano Shrine yesterday on the bus and the ones I saw looked quite open and much more so than when I walked through two days ago....

We were there last year for the height of the sakura and I also experienced the magic the first time I went to Japan in the 80s. Both visits were for for work, so the blossoms were a serendipitous bonus. Now I don't want to visit at any other time.
