Ume, plum trees are now in season ;)

"Ume" Plum trees are now in season ;)

G'day mate;)
It is raining today and a bit chilly whether
but last week was much warmer.
Flowers are start blooming and it shows us spring is just around the corner.

At Osaka castle, there are about 1270 plum trees "Ume" !
Ume is much smaller than Sakura, cherry blossom but
they are all PRETTY and
it is worth seeing with Osaka castle in the background!

Plum will be until the middle of March and after that,
it will be "Sakura" season !!
One of the most beautiful season in Japan so
why not come to Japan and spend lovely time with those flowers?? :)

How to get there:
Take JR Yamatoji Express bound for Tennoji / Namba / Osaka and
get off @ Tennoji st (20mins).
Take a JR loop line from Tennoji st to Osakajyo koen st (11 mins).
About 10 mins walking to the castle.
