Waiting for Sakura blossoms（桜が待ち遠しい
(意味が分からない言葉には，マウスを合わせてみてください。訳が表示されます。)
As we head into the month of March, the weather is beginning to change
in Hitoyoshi.
It feels like spring is just around the corner,
and I’m looking
forward to enjoying warmer temperatures after several months of winter.
Although I like spring,
summer has always been my favorite time of year
and it is generally the season that I look forward to most.
However, this year is a bit different
because this marks the first time that I will be spending spring in another country.
But what has me most excited about the change of seasons this year
is the promise of many beauiful Sakura blossoms.
As this is my first experience living in Japan,
I have yet to see the blossoming of
cherry trees that sweeps across the country every
spring.
Where I come from there are no cherry trees,
so this spring will be very different for me. I'm really looking forward to seeing it
in person and I plan on taking many pictures to show my family back home.
If you know of any good places to view Sakura, please let me know.
