Ume in bloom

Recently, it has beem a kind of warm, so that the flowers might almost be coaxed into showing signs of blooming.

At the park in YOYOGI area, I could enjoy seeing Japanese apricot trees in bloom. It is really cute pink flower that is a kind of the sign of the spring coming. So it is earlier than SAKURA in bloom.




The plum trees will be in bloom until early March.

OHSHO - a reasonable chain chinese restaurant

When I was a teen-aged boy, I often go to OHSHO, a kind of chinese casual restaurant, to have a lunch after playing in the music studio.
