Glimpse of Sakura

A consolation of not being able to view the sakura in Japan, here is the local version at our back yard. This is planted by the previous owner, we usually enjoyed the full blossom of cherry blossom in May, and I just have to wait patiently for the moment to come at home where hopefully I will be able to brew a bowl of powered green tea and enjoy the full of it in the garden.

On the other note, the sakura is at its peak in Japan, it is forecast to be one more week before it is seen again next week.
