Little tree smiling....

...the only little plum tree next to our condominium which is now in bloom. It is the early blooming type and it delights us every year with its tiny pink buttons.
Tomorrow we're are planning a trip to "Soga Bairin" - a big orchard with some thousands of plum trees of various types located near Odawara, at the mouth of Hakone. IF we are lucky - they announced 15 deg.C temperature - we MIGHT get a glimpse of Mt. Fuji as a bonus.Which is still in its mantle of snow!
