About a week ago, they predicted an early bloom. Then they retracted it because they had miscalculated temperature or something. Then yesterday, supposedly some cherry blossoms were open in Tokyo Haven't seen any yet. Wonder where?
There ain't no samurai, there are few geisha, Japanese are not the most polite people in the world. In practice, there is no special love or care for nature, nor is Japan uniquely unique. Sorry, but the sugar-coated fantasyland-Japan of Edwin O. Reischauer et al does not exist--if it ever did.
