Hanami watch

This is for Sonoko and Yoppy-chan! It's bwb's very own sakura forecast, seeing as Sonoko is a bit too far from home to log onto one of the official Japanese ones. Judging from the slow progress of the blossom in our street there's no need to put the sake on ice quite yet for the Hanami celebration. Am not sure quite what that comprises, but I'm hoping I will find out. If you want a sneak preview of what the sakura will look like, click here.

And this was Yoppy-chan and Louis-chan working out earlier this week in preparation for the Hanami sushi fest.

Thank you sooooo much Susie. This is so lovely of you!!! Thanks for the current Sakura forecast at yours. It seems it will take another 2weeks or so.  I just fouond my local Hanami spot picture.

I never appreciated or even noticed how beautiful it was when I was living there. As I haven't been back to Japan in Spring time for 10 years, I miss the Hanami so much. I am so happy that Susie thought about this amazing Hanami party for me and everyone. I hope Louis & Yoppy find it special too. I can't wait to Kanpai (cheers!) the Sake with you Susie! Sonokoxxx
