花見 Cherry Blossom Party

Cherry Blossom is in season. If you are in Japan, you would have heard of the word "Hanami" during the cherry blossom season. Literally translated "Hanami" means "flower viewing" but it usually refers to cherry blossom viewing. Hanami can be just a stroll in the park, but it traditionally also involves a picnic party under the blooming trees. POTATO play group joined the "Tabunka Tomodachi Center Japanese Class" cherry blossom party today. We are blessed with nice sunny weather. The kids had a nice time and played by the river bank after their lunch. Throwing rocks in the river, picking flowers, contemplating to build a bridge across the river are some of the fun that they had.

You may wonder about the Japanese class mentioned here. Well the place that Potato gathers is actually the venue for a voluntary Japanese class. Class fee is 2000 yen per month. Classes are held on Wednesday and Friday morning (10 a.m. to 12 p.m.) and afternoon (1 p.m. and 3 p.m.). Child care assistance is also available.
