The last days' warm weather has made the plum tree in our back yard bloom.
Soon after I felt the first day of spring, flowers started opening up one after another. And now, half of the blossoms are in bloom.
But, spring hasn't come to Nara yet.
We have to wait until Omizutori, the ritual of holy water, ends.
But, trees in woods and mountains started shooting out spring buds, and it brings me somewhat happy feelings.
