First Plum Blossoms of 2015

This has been a very cold winter in Japan and it snowed about six or seven times this winter season. 

I have seen the first plum blossoms of the year around the neighborhood and taken photos of them. I saw the first one yesterday, so today I went out and took a few photos in spite of it being rainy. And, as I do every year, I'd like to post just a few photos for you of the first arrivals of the blossoms.

As the cold still remains, the blossoms show us that spring is right around the corner.

May all you dreams come true in 2015!

First Plum Blossoms of 2012

Spring is here in Tokyo! Today the plum trees have blossomed across the street. It is the first of the year!

The blossoming of the plum trees means that the blossoming of the cherry trees is just around the corner... And that means Hanami time!

I hope that your dreams and wishes come true for the rest of 2012!

Please come to our free Hanami party on 4/1/12!
