2021.2.9

It was fine.

Kawazu zakura (河津桜), pink cherry blossoms, are full in bloom at my station, and they are so beautiful.

Japanese people really love to see cherry blossoms in spring.  They are pale pink flowers and called Somei yoshino (ソメイヨシノ), and usually full in bloom in the late March to early April in Kanto area and they last only a week or so. 

But Kawazu zakura is bright shocking pink and last longer.

Every year around this time we have a cherry blossom festival, but because of COVID-19 there is no festival this year.

Here are some pictures.  I hope you enjoy.
