Before the Festival

Ume blossoms has started blooming in Tokyo.
Today, I visited Yushima Tenjin that is a Shinto shrine located in Yushima, Bunkyo ward.


Ume festival of the shrine starts from tommorow.

I can't believe your Ume Festival is starting so soon, or that the trees are already blooming! We're still locked in a dreary, sludgy winter around here. But I had a dream that I was driving my car under a canopy of blooming cherry trees...
