春が来た・It’s Springtime🌷

Jenniferです🌸

最近凄く暖かい天気ですね!
桜が開花しました💕
来週の天気も晴れて、お花見は楽しみですね。

Spring is here at last: the cherry trees are starting to blossom, and the weather has been warm and sunny!  This beautiful weather is supposed to continue into next week, when the blossoms will be at their peak.

There are many spectacular spots in and around Matsue to take in their delicate beauty!

千手院のさくら

先週、千手院で250年余の桜を見に行きました!松江の有名な枝垂れさくらはとても美しいですね!!千手院からの松江城もステキに見えますよ。

Last week, Mr. K and I went to see the beautiful “weeping” cherry tree at Senjyuin Temple.  The temple is situated on a hill and also offers sweeping views of the city, including the castle.  The iconic tree is around 250 years old and has been designated as a natural monument of Matsue.

🌸また、来年もキレイなさくらを待ってま〜す🌸
I’m looking forward to next year’s cherry blossoms!

玉湯川のさくら

先週の大雨が降る前日、お友達と一緒に玉造で桜を見に行きました!玉湯川のさくらはとてもキレイ!!また、来年もキレイなさくらを待ってま〜す。♡

Last week, before it rained, I was lucky my friend took me to see the beautiful cherry trees at Tamatsukuri, on the south side of Lake Shinji.  The trees are along both sides of the Tamayu River and are even lit up in the evenings while the trees are in bloom.

お店の前の桜(なかよし公園)は満開です!!とてもキレイですね🌸

そして、鳥さんも花見してますね😉

The cherry trees in front of Hair Innovation are in full bloom!! The flowers are absolutely lovely🌸. Even the blue heron is captivated by them!

UPDATE

Unfortunately, these trees were cut down in January 2022 as part of an ongoing process to improve the flow of the canal and prevent flooding. However our neighbor at 有限会社馬場印刷所 was able to save some saplings, and one of them bloomed in Spring 2024❤︎
