Spring has come

                                                    
In Japan, cherry blossoms(sakura) are blooming now.
Tokyo too.

Japanese people loves cherry blossoms.
When we seeing cherry blossoms,
we can feel spring season very much.

When the season of cherry blossoms,
many people go to watchcherry blossoms
at park,castle place,riverside.


We call it HANAMI.
(In Japanese, [HANA] means flower ,[MI] means watching or seeing )


When Hanami, you can drink sake,beer,
or other alcohol you want,under the cherry blossom trees.

It is not general to drink at daytime in Japan.
But, in Hanami situation we can drink outside at daytime or nighttime
and we like it.
