[Silver] March 25, 2015 14:00

 The equinox day has passed and it has become warmer. Today, let's take a walk from Tsukiji Station on the Tokyo Metro.
When you head to Tsukiji River Park on the north side of Tsukiji Honganji Temple, a kind of cherry blossoms, "Sunlight," blooms, and the shoots of willow trees are youthful beyond it.

When you enter the park and go north, you willows have a lot of small white flowers. It's white that makes you feel refreshed. Lenkyo also has yellow flowers.
