This time of year in Japan is called Hanami. It is when the famous Sakura, or Cherry blossom blooms.
People celebrate this sign that Spring is truly here by having picnics underneath Sakura trees in the many parks around Japan.
Nagoya is no different and on Sunday my wife and I headed out to Tsurumai park to enjoy the sun and a beer or 2.
