On the road in front of my apartment room, I found pink polka dot. The cherry blossoms flowed and got into holes of nonskid road.
Cute! isn't it?
Here in Japan everyone begins to talk about cherry blossomes in end of March, when it's getting warmer.There is even forecasts of cherry blossom flowering times which the Japan Meteorological Agency will issue every day on the season.
It's because cherry blossom viewing parties are very popular event among us. It provides an opportunity to celebrate the coming of spring in a cozy atmosphere. Normally people have to come pretty early in a park to get a good spot (for example, just under the full flowering tree) for party.
I took this photo in Ueno Zoo Park(most populart spot for cherry viewing) at noon. You can see people waiting alone on the blue sheet for their companions.
Now on 10th April, the season has ended. I personally had cherry blossoms viewing party outside for three times this spring. I really love to drink beer seeing pink flowers upon me with funny friends!
