Now 2021 is Fun & Not Yet Done!

Wooster Square Cherry Blossoms Reach Peak! 

Let La Passeggiata Proceed! 


Lifetime Wooster Squarian,and 
famous New Haven Resident,Noah Webster, 
defined Passeggiata as:

     "A traditional evening stroll in the Central Plaza
      by the town's residents". The word derives from
      the Italian Verb passeggiare, which means to
      walk.

Walk? Got a special place in mind?

Well my friends, this is
the time of year we wait for here in our
Sacred Sakura Square. The time when our
Cherry Blossoms are Blooming in 
World Famous,Historic Wooster Park! 

Wooster Park Cherry Blossoms 
quite possibly peaked on Wednesday. 
So I suggest that Perfect Pink Passeggiata
is waiting for you! 

As most of you know, I'm recovering
from foot surgery and have had great
support from folks posting photos.

Not a problem! I have a couple of 
official Deputy Blossom Bloggers too.

So what are you supposed to do?

1. Set GPS for Wooster Square.
2. Order food from Wooster Street.
    (Pizza, Pasta, Steaks, Veal...)
3. Take said take out to
    Wooster Park.
4. Spreak blanket, pop the
    bubbly, and Bon Appetit!
5. Gather garbage, place in
    proper receptacle.
6. Pull out digital device.
7. Passeggiata around the Square
    (walk, pausing to mug manically).
8. Dessert on Wooster Street
9. Text friends family with the
    #woostersquare #cbfnh2021
10. Follow the Wooster Square
     Blossom Blog all year! We
     are celebrating 10 Years!

And now, the moment you've been
waiting for! Deputy Blossom Blogger
Linda Young took these photos
last night 4/14/2021!!**

Hughes Place looking North.
This used to be a tunnel of Cherry Blossoms
but the trees all on the right were replaced.
To tell you the truth, it's come a long way!


Bev's Corner
Beverley Carbonella was one
of the driving forces of
planting our trees and starting
our annual Cherry Blossom Festival.
No longer with us, the former
Italian Consulate Home owner
and N'aven original was way
ahead of her time. We all miss her.

White and pink power pleasers!

Land of Ahs

Sadly, this man forgot his camera.
Luckily...

Holy Hanami!

  2. These are some incredible, beautiful shots of Cherry Blossoms. With many things in life the Cherry Blossoms are fleeting and only last for a short period of time. But when they are blooming, the time is right. Thanks for these great pics!
