あんず、桜、今度は桃の花、@川中島 First the apricot, then cherry, now Peach Blossoms, @ Kawanakajima

2009.04.14: 季節 Seasons

森「杏の里」の花が終わって、戸倉上山田温泉の周辺の桜の花が終わりかけ、今度は桃が咲き出しました。しかし、桃の木の下で花見するって、あまりないですよね。まあ、花を見るより、実を食べるのが楽しみですね。そして、近くに川中島地区が桃のメッカーです。夏にジューシーな川中島ももを食べるのは楽しみにしています。

The apricot blossoms in Mori "Anzu no Sato" are gone, the cherry blossoms around Togura Kamiyamada Onsen have almost all fallen, so what's next? The peach blossoms! However, you don't hear about people doing hanami under the peach trees. I guess it's because everyone likes the trees for their fruit more than their flowers. And in this area, we have all the delicious, juicy fruit from the peach trees in nearby Kawanakajima district. I can't wait to eat those peaches this summer!
