This afternoon my students from Minami Yoshinari Church, Dan, Pastor Zenniya and Yoko Narita had a picnic celebrating the blooming of the Sakura (cherry blossoms) trees. This event, a picnic under the sakura, is a Japanese tradition. It was about 55 today and sunny, GREAT weather for Hanami! This is my first time ever seeing cherry blossoms blooming in Japan. Last time I was here, I was in the hospital during this week.

I have to tell you. I really love your blog. You tell good stories.
Oh it's so pretty.... I love spring in Japan. ND not so much because it can't make up it's mind whether to be warm or cold. :-)
I love the pictures! It looks so pretty and warm there. Thanks for sharing them
