Spring has come!

Please enjoy this photo of early Spring, taken across the road from my apartment block. The ume blossoms were pretty, but short-lived, and the mikan oranges can be seen growing in many gardens in my neighbourhood.

Edit: The fruit has begun to fall from the tree, and since taking one home, I have realised they are in fact huge grapefruit ^^

Soon will be the hanami, or Cherry Blossom viewing festival, scheduled at the end of the month. My AEON students are getting very anxious, hoping the peak of the festival will fall on a weekend, so everyone can enjoy the blossoms together.
