Hanami@Umegaoka: Feb 21, 2010


It’s season to enjoy Hanami, Japanese traditional practice to enjoy flower blossoms. We usually enjoy Ume blossoms (Japanese apricot) in February and Cherry blossoms in March and April.

I went to Hanegi Park in Umegaoka to enjoy Hanami. Umegaoka means “the hill of Ume”. There are about 650 Ume trees in the park.

There were so many people in the park. Some were enjoying their lunch boxes. Others were taking pictures. It was a beautiful day. Spring is at the corner.
