the plum biossom festival of this year was over.

This is the park (Yokohama Jido Yuenchi) of 10minutes walk from my house.
Every day I walk around this park and enjoy seeing many flowers and plants.
That is one of my daily routine. The plum blossom festival of this year was over earlier than that of last year. As soon as the plum blossoms are over, many people wait the cherry blossoms. According to a weather forecast, the first day of cherry blossom in Tokyo may be about 20th march.
It is helpful to me to be warmer than usual in this time of year. And it is my pleasure to see a cherry blossom earlier than usual.　But at the same time I care about the bad influences in Japanese economy and big disaster.
