In Japanese, the word Sakura means cherry blossom.
And I’ve become particularly fond of Sakura Fubuki, which means cherry blossom snowstorm.
Isn’t that gorgeous?
Oh, that’s lovely.
Does that mean when they fall or when they all bloom at once?
I think it’s when they’re all blooming at once and the wind blows through them and they just kind of look like a snowstorm.
Oh, yeah.
So they’re just gently waving in the breeze.
Oh, that’s nice.
And the smell.
I can just smell it.
Oh, that’s very good.
