It was rather warm today. In the daytime it went up to around 18 degrees centigrade like spring in Tokyo. During daytime I was inside, therefore I did not notice how warm it was. But even at night it is still warm around 16 degrees centigrade (68F?), and this is the first night in this winter that I do not have to use the heater.
Outside some winter flowers are blooming. Usually cherry blossoms are full in bloom in the late March to early April, but around this area Kawazu-zakura (河津桜), Kawazu cherry blossom is in bloom. The original tree was found in Kawazu, Shizuoka (静岡県賀茂郡河津町：shizuoka ken kamo gun kawazu cho) in 1955. They have Kawazu-zakura festival around February 10 to March 10. There are Kawazu-zakura about 3km along the bank of the Kawazu river. The color is bright pink and the flower season is about a month.
