昨日のポカポカ陽気で、東京の桜はそろそろ満開といった感じです。去年より13日も遅い開花で若干イライラもしましたが、実は去年がやたらと早かっただけで、コレでほぼ平年並み(とは言え3日の遅れ)らしいです。近所にある
自転車の墓場横にも桜がキレイに咲いてます。ここが公園なら花見が出来るのにな。
After yesterday's nice weather, sakura (cherry blossoms) are almost in full bloom in Tokyo (
cherry blossoms blooming forecast). The blossoms arrived in Tokyo 13 days later than in 2004, but it was only three days later than in average years. The cherry blossoms by the
bicycle graveyard near our place (impounded bicycle storage centre for illegally parked bicycles) are blooming beautifully. It would be nice if this was a little playground.
