Cherry Blossoms in Shogen

 Here is something that is happening more and more in Japan, especially since they shut down all the nuclear reactors. This house is being fitted with solar panels on the roof. As far as I know the unused energy that the panels produce can be fed back into the electrical grid, reducing your bill. Also many of the panel systems are now coming with rechargeable batteries so the electricity collected during the day can be used at night.
 A little farther along, we came to the beginning of the cherry trees. People were having a picnic under the very first one.
 There are different kinds of cherry trees so there are different pinks. I will stop blabbering here and just let you enjoy the colors.
