ただひたすら花が開くのを待つ、不思議な高揚感が日本中を覆います。
なぜかウキウキするのです
This is the time when the cherry bloosom front moves steadily northward,and all over Japan,peopel wait expectantly for the first bolssoms to appear. Everyone's mood is united by this collective anticipation of the first open blossom, and the archipege becomes caught up in a st range but wonderful sense of elation. Plans for flower-viewing picnics come together,and there is nothing left to do but pray for good weather.
