Cherry blossom is SAKURA in Japanese.
The meaning of this word seems to come from the word "Sakura", which bloom in a showy fashion and then very quickly vanish.


Enjoying ''Ohanami'' (Sakura-viewing party) with friends, enjoying seeing Sakura quietly alone in the night time.... many people enjoy Sakura in different way in different places everywhere in Japan. 

We had a long winter this year. This spring came really slowly, we slowly enjoy feel the changing seasons, the warm sun and the fresh air !! yay !! I finally feel spring !!!
