SAKURA 2016

都心では先々～先週末に見頃でしたー

たくさんの人たちがお花見を楽しんでいる平和な風景。

これは、これで桜とともに、見ものですね。

平和で治安の良い国ならではの、春の風物詩。

友人としみじみ、そんな平和な風景を噛みしめました。

代々木公園では、ゴミ片付け隊が「ごみゼロ」ベストを身にまとい

公園の美観を守ってくれていました！

頼もしい～

最近は多くの外国人もお花見を楽しんでいる様子。

 

Cherry blossoms; SAKURA were in full bloom last 2 weekends in the central Tokyo.

Many people were enjoying "HANAMI; SAKURA viewing" with drinking beer or something in spite of chilly weather.

We Japanese are crazy for SAKURA from the ancient times and HANAMI is one of the annual big events for us when the spring is here. 

I & my friend thought we can never enjoy HANAMI without safety & peace in our society.  It's also worth viewing those many "people" fully enjoying SAKURA in the park.  

We met guardians wearing "No garbage" vest to keep the park clean during HANAMI at Yoyogi Park on that day.

We've got to appreciate them!　Because we incredibly eat and drink during HANAMI.

We also noticed a lot of foreigners were enjoying HANAMI!
