CHERRY BLOSSOM IN NIIGATA SOON...


I can’t wait till weekend to go for o-hanami. Niigata’s cherry blossom is pretty late this year due to the extended cold period. Niigata has been experiencing strong wind and slight drizzle almost every day and the cold weather has been lingering for the past few days. However, there are already signs of a changing season. Cherry trees are slowly blossoming with green buds cracking out. Many trees around the university corridor have been giving away this tell-tale sign of an imminent cherry blossom coming to Niigata.
