Cherry blossom - Sakura

Sakura means cherry blossom in Japanese.
It is one of my most favorite flowers.

Cherry blossom is somehow special for Japanese, which is not only its beauty but also feels the excitement about the beginning of a new year.
Since Japanese school year starts in April and newly graduated poeple starts working in April.
The entrace ceremony of a shcool is often held at fully open cherry blossom season.
The high school I went to has an ally of cherry blossoms leading from the gate to the shool buildings. I remeber that the enterance ceremony day was at the peak of cherry blossoms. They were so beautiful.  The cherry blossom welcomed new students this year as well as they did to me.
