Spring in Japan.
April 2005 |
|
The snow was melting but the spring had not arrived the North of Sweden yet. I got mail from Japan. There it was spring and beautiful flowers were growing on the Japanese cherry trees. | |
But in Sweden it was typical April weather. Wet snow and hail was falling on the yard. But I travelled by Internet to Japan and could look at the beautiful blooming trees. | |
In the year 2006 there came a lot of snow at the end of Marsh and the beginning of April. The spring came late that year. |
I was day dreaming about sitting on a blanket in the green grass in Japan. And feel the warmth of the sun. |
And I dreamed about walking in the park underneath the beautiful big trees. |
I was wondering how old these big trees were. |
These small trees were rally exotic. There were big flowers on the trees. |
A close up of a flower. I was wondering if the flower was smelling good. |
Another close up of a flower. Real beautiful flowers. |
A beautiful park in Japan. |
Even the streets had beautiful trees. |
But in Sweden it was snowing. Wet snow was falling on my big hood. |
I did not want to walk this day. I took the bus instead. |
But I was day dreaming again about the blooming trees and the green grass in the park in Japan. |
Now it was April 15. I walked around to look for the first flowers named tussilago. Behind the house there I was working I found the first tussilago in the dry grass. There was the only one tussilago. I sat down on my knees and looked at the beautiful flower. And I said a little prayer to thank the Lord who is the creator of heaven and earth. |
I got another e-mail from Japan. "Now I will go to the Fuji mountain, will you follow me?" And I went to the Fuji Mountain by the Internet. |
Even here by the Fuji Mountain there were blooming cherry trees. |
It was like I could smell the scent of the blossoms. |
What a was gorgeous place. |
Now spring even was coming to Sweden. I found a new flower on the yard, It was a snowdrop. |
And in Japan these white flowers were blooming. |
A new sign of the spring in Sweden. I found crocus on the yard. |
And in Japan these blue flowers were in bloom. |
Another gorgeous place. |
Idyllic place! |
I enjoyed the view of the Fuji Mountain. Fuji Mountain is now inactive volcano on the island Honshu in Japan, near Tokyo. It is 3776 meter high and has a crater diameter, 610 meter. The latest volcanic eruption was from November 24, 1707 until January 22, 1708 . |
The mighty Fuji Mountain. The top is almost in heaven. |
