Kamiyama Hanami

The other day, I went to a park of cherry trees in a town called Kamiyama in Tokushima Prefecture with some friends for "hanami" (the practice of making an event of observing the blossoming cherry trees in spring). Even though it's supposed to be spring already, it was super cold that day! But we were on top of a mountain, so it being chilly is probably a given. Anyway, I managed to take a lot of good shots, so let's have a look!

この間、友達と徳島県の神山っていう町での桜の木の公園に花見をしに行った。もう春になっているのに、本当に寒かった！でも、山の上だったから、寒いとはもちろんのかもね。。。とにかく、いい写真何枚も撮れたから、見せてあげる！

Everyone, walking along together.

皆、一緒に歩いていく。

I believe this spot was the highest point in the park, but I could be wrong.

ここは、公園の一番高いところと思うけど、ちゃうかな。

These stairs made of logs of wood were really cool.

この木の何本でも作っている階段が、すごくかっこよ.だ！

It was colder on top of the mountain than at lower elevations, so the flowers hadn't really bloomed at all yet. Despite that, there was a lot of really breath-taking scenery, so I was happy.

山の上で、低いところより寒いから、桜がまだ、殆ど咲いてなかった。それなのに、すばらしい眺めが見えて、うれしかった！

There was so much beauty in this place, words are hardly necessary, right? You can feel content just by taking it in.

すごくて美しい景色いっぱいで、言葉が殆どいらないでしょう？見るだけで、癒すことが出来るね～。

Ja, mata ato de ne!
じゃ、また後でね！
