Kawazu Cherry Blossoms



The Kawazu cherry blossoms in Izu, miraculously beginning to bloom despite the cold weather. Generally cherry blossoms bloom in spring, but this kind (flowers are larger and the colors a more vivid pink) seems to be an early bloomer. They made a pretty contrast with the bright yellow of the rape blossoms.

It just seems way too early for any blossoms. I just got back from Japan (Tochigi) and it was snowing like crazy a couple of days.
