In particular, on Saturday last week, the blossoms near our old school location were beautiful. As we moved boxes to the new location, back and forth on our bicycles, I was treated to the sight of the pink swirls along the road's edge again and again. At one point, it almost got corny, when one of our teachers was running down the road in a light jog and three small sparrows went flying in a playful trail around him. It was the quintessential moment of the Japanese cherry blossom season. I'm really happy that I was able to experience them properly this year, despite being so busy. By Sunday, half of the trees had already lost all of their blossoms.
