Good morning.
It is fine today. I feel spring is comoing day by day(*^_^*).
As it is getting warmer, more people visit "Rental Bike FUUNE" and leave our shop with our bike.
We are happy to see off the "Bike Lovers"(^o^).
Do you know that Japanese love cherry blossoms?
Actually, cherry blossoim( "Sakura" in Japanese) is regardeds as floral emblem of Japan.
People have outside banquests under the trees of Sakura when they are in bloom.
At the outside banquest, flower petals of Sakura fall on our lunch box and glasses of Sake under the trees.
It is like a Sakura shower.
The period of blooming is very short.
When the time of Sakura blooming come in Spring, many Japanese feel we just want to enjoy this precious time with Sakura.
That's why Japanese have outside banquest, parties and festivals with Sakura.
I might say that it is a kind of celebration of Spring coming.
In Kyoto, there are many places where we enjoy Sakura and feel Spring.
By bike you can drop by many places on the way to the destination.
Also, you have a good exercise and feel Spring breeze with bike.
"Rental Bike FUUNE" really recommend roaming in Kyoto with our good bikes(^o^).
Thank you
