Spring Has Come! / 春が来た！ [Life]
東京では21日に桜（ソメイヨシノ）の開花宣言が発表されました。例年に比べて7日早い開花です。桜の開花と聞くと春がやって来たなあ、と思う私。気持ちもワクワクしてきます。

The Sakura which flowered 開花した桜 |
The flowering of a cherry tree in Tokyo was declared on last Saturday, 21 of March. It was the flowering 7 days earlier than an ordinary year. When I hear the the flowering of a cherry tree every year, I feel spring has come. My heart beats faster in anticipation.
今日通りがかった目黒川沿いは三分咲きといった印象。
The cherry trees along the Megro River where I was just passing seemed to be thirty percent in bloom.

今週末あたりからお花見シーズン到来といった感じでしょうか。どこも賑わいそうですね。
I guess the cherry blossom season will come around at last from this weekend. Everywhere in Tokyo will be crowded with people viewing the cherry blossoms.

The Advent of Spring / 春の訪れ。 [Life]
この１ヶ月間は何かと慌ただしくしており、久々の更新です…（汗）。
I could not update this weblog for about a month because I passed busy days... :P
そんな中、今日は所用で吉祥寺へ。
天気が良かったので、自転車で片道１時間ほどかけて行きました。
By the way, I went to Kichijoji (Tokyo) on business.
The weather was nice, so It took me about 1 hour each way to bicycled there.
途中立ち寄った井の頭公園（井の頭恩賜公園）での光景…。

This is the scenery of the Inokashira Park where I stopped off.
辛夷（コブシ）の花でしょうか、桜より一足先に咲いていました。
I guessed this flower was Magnolia Kobus (Kobushi Magnolia), it bloomed faster than Sakura (cherry tree) blooms.
東京は、日毎に暖かくなってきています。
春はもうすぐそこですね。
It has been getting warmer and warmer in Tokyo.
Spring is just around the corner.
