O-hana-mi.
Flower viewing.
Cherry Blossom (Sakura) season in Japan, the flowers (hana) bloom, last for about a week.
A Cherry blossom that has fallen, is known as an "Ohka"
My friend, Kanae, sent me some pics, and it shows the trees near her work covered in Pink.
so lovely, for such a short time.
After so many disasters and tragedies happening around the world, it's nice to be able to step away from that, for a while, and enjoy something so lovely, so fleeting.
Best wishes to all out there.
